  • For Authentic Learning, Start with Real ProblemsIf your students are prone to asking, “When will we ever need to know this?”, then maybe it’s time for a dose of reality.By sparking students’ interest in real issues that affect them and their peers around the world, you will give them cause to think more critically about what they are learning.
