One of the challenges that seems
to face anyone who teaches a class is student engagement. Now this happens at
many different levels and I've yet to find anyone exempt from this. Sometimes
when I teach I may have a class that has energetic students who love to
participate but there always seems to be one or two hard balls. Other classes
I've taught are full of students with dead eyes who refuse to participate. Those
two scenarios have seemed to be my experience through college. As a student I
like to engage and participate so I have a hard time putting myself in the
shoes of those students. So perhaps I am throwing the question out there how do
you reach those students even when you're giving it all you got because I
refuse to believe they're lost causes.
Hey there Anthony. I feel like some of the struggles you mention are some that can be felt by those in student organizations who are trying to gain a larger member base. For me personally, I have felt it challenging to find ways for other student to become interested. Nice way of keeping with it and not giving up!
