Dear Colleagues,
This question aims to find out what communication protocols are commonly applied for students - teachers?
How do they set up the communication? How different do they communicate not in the classroom and in the classroom?
What means of communication do they usually use if it is indirect (not one-to-one or face-to-face)?
Does the teacher have a somehow higher position or as a friend to talk with students? Are they communicate as peers in other contexts?
Please check your contexts and share with me !
Thank you very much!

I think that teachers should be colleagues and mentors for their students in the learning process. Therefore, there should not be formal barriers between them.
They are not exactly peers, but colleagues.
For example, I am on a first name basis with all of my students.
I tell you what goes on with me and my students.
The relationship is based on mutual trust and respect. it moves between formal and friendly.That works great! .no barriers are mentioned.
Generally,we communicate by using the "Moodle";a learning and communicating environment ,which is especially set for students and teachers.
Sometimes we use the "Edmodo" learning and communication environment.
as a pedagogical guide I and my students (pre-service teachers) communicate directly by mobiles.
I think it would first depend on if they were undergraduates or graduate students. Additionally, you may want to research the teacher-student relationship in Vietnam. This may not be a question to ask through a western perspective, but an eastern one. Other considerations such as age and gender may come into play as well.
communication is thevery basis or core of the relationship.
relationship make the understanding better and with ease.
I have observe that when a teacher before entering the first class or interaction with student ,take a brief meeting with the student,the his /her communication in class is more smooth avoiding the bias to a some extent,otherwise there exists an unseen tussles in mind of both-teacher and student.
Thank you very much for all your contributions!
And hi Marieke, it is interesting thought and this question should end of most of the colleagues in RG think alike. It is obviously that I have exposed to Vietnamese and eastern education for many years and realized some problems regarding the communication protocols.
I wanted to learn from other contexts and from that I would be possible to leave my ignorance and bring more effective lessons to my students. If you think we should look at eastern perspective and it would be enough, this question should not get more answers from other perspectives. I would assume that racism in doing research exists and it is even stronger in RG than in reality.
I believe that learning from and doing research are borderless and being curious about any problems of one's own context should be encouraged as a start.
Please tell me if I think wrongly! I don't understand.
