Students beyond Classes

Many a time I have felt that as a teacher one needs to interact and see students outside the classroom environment. Because as a teacher what happens in the classroom is only one dimension of the personality of the student. And many a time one would find the student who remains silent in the class to be very active in activities outside the class. And that helps us break the impression that the teacher might hold about the student. This is especially true in the case of a business school set-up where apart from class room one also needs to be active in other sphere of activities apart from classroom. Though there would be a large section which would be active in both classroom and extra curricular, but then when one sees those who prefer not to speak much in the class to be active outside....Maybe more important for teacher who are just starting off with their careers than experienced ones
