How the structure of a classroom can change how dominate the teacher is to the students. Also not having students answer questions in sequential order, rather mix up who answers next.

For instance, question 8 where 2 answers can be eliminated (1 and 3) since they are actually mentioned in the lesson itself while the two left over answers are not covered in the lesson and therefore require either luck since logic can't be applied to figure out the correct answer. Same for question 10, also subjective, where one has to decide without guidance using...  [Read more]

I wish it had some points about new students who still have not yet learned how to walk level. Anyhow, I was not sure about questions 8 and others, for question 8. I have come across students that do not understand and generally do not want to be in the class and their aim is to persuade the rest of the children to flip off the teacher. This is terrible but true. It happens a lot with 10-year-old male students. For...  [Read more]

  Our next main issue is going to be that of giving students individual attention. Here many classroom management and leaving potential discipline problems can be avoided by applying some simple rules to giving your students attention. The first one is to think about the way in which you ask questions. Don't ask questions in a predictable order. If you just go around the class asking questions from one person to the next then the person at the end of the class will know that it's going to be some time before you actually get to them. So try to mix up the way in which you're asking questions. In terms of answers to questions don't allow individual students to dominate all of the answers. One of the things that we can do to help this particular issue is to use the students names as...  [Read more]
