Empowering Educators and Students Through Boundaries
Abstract
Setting and maintaining boundaries is critical to any healthy relationship; this is no less true of the relationship between faculty and students. Education aims to empower students by facilitating their development of independent decision-making, critical thinking, problem-solving, time management skills, accountability, and self-efficacy. This can be done by setting boundaries that balance being accessible to students and providing the space for them to learn, explore, and develop independence. Boundaries also empower faculty by helping to reduce stress, avoid burnout, and promote an appropriate work-life balance. The authors explore research on setting boundaries to promote student success, empower faculty, and promote a healthy learning environment. Recommendations are shared on how to set and maintain boundaries between faculty and students regarding classroom expectations, activities, communications, and grading.
