Upon reading this article, it definitely made me rethink my idea of the best possible student - teacher relationship, and more importantly the role that trust plays in this relationship. It gave me further insight into what have a good level of trust in your students can provide for the educational atmosphere, and the overall nature of your classroom. Having this trust with your students allows the teacher to further modify their curriculum and environment in a way that is mutually beneficial.
