Case: Sarcasm in the class
When asking a question there is a student that loves to give smart remarks. I try to ignore them but is there a better way to handle this when it happens again?
Solution: (Rates are posted for this solution!)
This has happened to me before. Try not to ask non-academic questions like "Did you enjoy that book?" or "Wasn't that fun?" you will no doubt get at least one student who says no and those questions are unnecessary anyway. If the student also displays this behavior when you ask academic questions you may try to create a teaching moment out of their response. Explain why their answer is incorrect and move on. |

Comments: This solution is the best because when the student realizes that the teacher is not reacting to them and telling them their answer is wrong it will show the student that they are not making any reaction or gaining anything by giving those sarcastic answers. |

Comments: This is the best solution. Usually the students throwing around sarcasm are just looking for attention from the classroom and trying to be the clown, By moving right past anything they say it is letting them know that they are not amusing to you and you are not giving them the time to try to amuse the classroom as it is your time not theirs. |
