  I see this a lot is group building exercises. I like giving the students a puzzle to solve. Often the quiet ones have the answer quickly, but the group continues to struggle because nobody is listening to the quiet kid.

Many of my best students were ones who rarely spoke in the large group, were active in smaller groups (and the smaller the better) and had a great deal to share with me privately in papers.

Our classrooms contain too many forgotten introverted students who may need help but are not getting it and/or have gifts that aren't being either elicited or supported.

  Not all quiet kids are troubled - should not assume "something is wrong", but many have a lot to offer a class if given an opportunity to contribute in a way that they can feel comfortable.

Insightful article about the need to include space for introverts to shine in areas of their talents, too. I like the emphasis not on "overcoming" introversion, but instead on helping introverts use their strengths. Definitely a good reminder to pay attention to all our students, not just the ones jumping up and down all day long.

technology education classroom motivation effects

shared by Allie on 06 Sep 12 - Cached

When students are using technology as a tool or a support for communicating with others, they are in an active role rather than the passive role of recipient of information transmitted by a teacher, textbook, or broadcast.

The teacher is no longer the center of attention as the dispenser of information, but rather plays the role of facilitator, setting project goals and providing guidelines and resources, moving from student to student or group to group, providing suggestions and support for student activity

This was both interesting and helpful. All teacher especially teachers who believe technology should not be in the classroom should understand the benefits of technology. Motivation is one benefit that stuck out to me because it makes sense to use modern tools to help students accomplish more and want to learn.

  This seems like a case of 1. a miscommunication between professor expectations for collaboration and student understanding of these expectations and 2. students being led to believe that little to no work could be done and an a would be received
