Abstract	Quiet students are sometimes misunderstood in the college classroom. Students may be quiet for reasons related to personality traits, learned behaviors, or situational factors, but regardless, their silences may be misinterpreted by their instructors as a lack of engagement in their courses. In fact, quiet students are often very engaged in the learning process but may need space to express their interest in ways that are suited to their quiet tendencies. This article describes how quiet students are perceived in the classroom, reviews the reasons why quiet students often serve as a source of uncertainty for college instructors, and explains a number of strategies that instructors can use to meet the learning needs of quiet students. (As Provided).
