What do students need to know to want to learn?
1. First, they need to know WHY?
2. Then, WHAT it will give them. In order words, HOW will it BENEFIT them?
3. This is usually related to careers, jobs, MONEY, GRADES.
4. Followed by, WHAT TIME INVESTMENT they will need, so HOW LONG will it take?
5. Ultimately, will they ever use it again, so WHEN will it be useful?
Your greatest success will come in presenting everything as an OPPORTUNITY!
Should you have the drive to have a fulfilling career in Teaching, then brace yourself! You will need to reflect on the above question in order to present any content with creativity and spice. The more you can link it to their present life NOW, the better they will learn. BASICALLY, you need to inject the curiosity, trigger the motivation by depicting a palpable reality that will be attractive enough to promote good will and determination.
When you succeed, THEY will glow with Pride and so will YOU!
Have a nice week. Happy Trails,
