Good morning, TIPSters. I don't usually teach much about kinesthesis,
proprioception, and movement disorders, but my Neuropsych students have
expressed an interest in exploring those areas this year so I'm doing my
best to meet the challenge. I'm looking for relatively brief classroom

Hi Nathalie,
How about a basic physiotherapy exercise for retraining proprioception. 1)
With eyes open, students can stand on one leg and slowly bend down and up a
number of times (relatively easy to keep your balance as you are helped by
your visual system, etc) 2) Do
Nathalie- My first guess would be to look on Neuroscience for Kids (Eric
Chudler's website has a lot of neuroscience education links). There was

Obviously, Mister is not only acceptable, but also appropriate in my
case. I have no problem with it being used.
I used to tell my students (back in the old days when I actually saw
them) they could call me Mister, Professor, or Master anything
except Dr.. When asked what the M.A. stands for,

I debated referring to my students this semester as Mr. and Miss until I
realized that I had enough trouble learning their first names. I decided that

that respect is important - but it should be mutual respect. I would

What is it in my post that indicates a lack of respect?

I didn't say that you lack respect for students. I assume and hope that you
do respect them. I just asked how you ***show*** them the respect that they
deserve. If calling you by a title rather than your first name is supposed
to be a sign that students respect you what do you call students that
I prefer to address them as Mr. or Ms., since few of them have earned
other titles. If I called them by their first names, it might be taken
as suggesting that I want some other type of relationship.

Hi, Tim. I looked there because I was able to find some good sensory activities there
