Respond by Day 6 to a colleague by describing an effective former college instructor over the years of your higher education who exemplified one or more of the characteristics your colleague described, and explain the positive impact that instructor had on your professional development as a result of exhibiting that characteristic. If you have not experienced the characteristics your colleague discussed, explain how the lack of experiencing those characteristics might have affected your professional development and academic path.

Be sure to support your responses with specific references to the Learning Resources. If you are using additional articles, be sure to provide full, APA-formatted citations for your references.
