  Case: What techniques do you use to keep students actively involved during a lesson?
If you are asked this question in a job interview for a teaching position: What are some things you should avoid when responding to this question? What might be some important points to stress that would get the interviewer's attention? How would you respond to this question?
Solution: (Rates are posted for this solution!)
I will ensure that, even when lecturing, students are involved in the lesson. This can include such strategies as asking students to summarize what you have just said, asking them to relate the current material to previous lessons, and relating the material to real life situations and/or popular ideas that may interest the students. The last thing a teacher wants in this situation is to present material that the students see as abstract and utterly useless to their future and the real world.

Comments: I think these suggestions would be a great way to help students to be involved in the lesson. By asking them to relate the material they just learned to past lessons you are able to see how well they are understanding everything, and by asking them questions that interest them or to relate the material they are learning to things that interest them, you are keeping them focused and involved in the lesson. Involvement is definitely important.

Comments: I agree with this solution. I think it is a great idea to make the lesson relatable to students so that when you ask for feedback, the student is able to respond and stay interested in the topic because they have a story of their own to relate and share.
