Boundaries with Learners
Learning Activity
A key to protecting our wellness is establishing and preserving healthy boundaries with the people we interact with. "Boundaries" guidelines that we establish for our relationships with others that informs them of what we consider to be acceptable and unacceptable forms of behavior. While boundaries generally act to inform others of what we will not tolerate, for educators, setting and enforcing boundaries can act as a way "[defining] the limits of your role as a teacher - this profoundly influences your workload and ultimately your mental health". This is key in avoiding exhaustion and maintaining a healthy work/life balance.
