Description
Book SynopsisWatch many students in schools today and you see a range from total boredom to genuine fascination. Where does the apathy come from and could teachers make it disappear from their classrooms? Apathy and/or boredom should not come as a surprise when students are only given the responsibility to follow rules and complete assignments. This can all change in the blink of an eye if the teacher exercises their right and responsibility to make the learning process in his/her classroom fascinating and stimulating. This volume will help you to do just that, with real, practical examples and helpful hints for engaging your students and leaving a lasting impact on their lives.
