But think about it from her POV - she's just going to keep doing it unless someone tells her (yes, she probably should know but lecturers are (with a certain generosity of spirit in some cases) only human).

If you expect her to be honest with students, isn't it a reciprocal arrangement?

I've been in the reverse position - when a student has had to tell me similar things about what I've done in lectures. Sometimes I've seen the point and changed what I was doing because I needed to, sometimes I didn't because, on reflection, it didn't seem appropriate.

But from the view across the desk, as it were, one of the more frustrating things that happens is getting a review report from a student that says, "You've been doing this all term and it really bugs me!". The obvious question is - why didn't the student say something at the outset?
