Well, it’s that time of year again: thinking about what to give friends, relatives, colleagues, and others for the upcoming December holidays. Your students should also be included, not because you hold any endearing personal relationship with any (you shouldn’t), nor because you think they’d like you more if you do (if you don’t know by now, teaching is not a popularity contest). It is simply a nice thing to do, AND you can both help the students in their learning growth and foster a nicer student-class bond.
