However, she still has to work. She does not let emotions affect her work efficiency. She also felt that this kind of thing must be dealt with directly. Therefore, she said in class that even in the network environment, everyone should respect. Otherwise, it might break the law. In fact, she was very worried about what she said in the classroom, so that student will have a sense of distance to her. As a teacher, she was very concerned about how they think about her. However, after the event ended, she and the colleagues in the Academic Affairs Office went to dinner and have some food. At the same time, she also talked with her colleagues about what happened in her class. They also agreed with her practice and told her a lot of good ways to deal with those naughty students. After chatting with her colleagues and eating the perfect food, she was much better.
