  Case: Mr. Know it All
Chase is a student placed in Mr. Smith's advanced math course. He pretends to know it all and interrupts the teacher with answers and "smart" comments all the time. Mr. Smith has talked to Chase about his behavior, which calms him down for a while. Despite his "Mr. Know it all" attitude Chase doesn't well on his evaluations which makes him be upset at Mr. Smith and blame him for his grades.
What actions should Mr. Smith take in this case?
Solution: (Rates are posted for this solution!)
I would consider giving this student an individual project to work on. Instead of having him take a normal test, have the student research a topic that he likes and present it to the class. This will give him the opportunity to master a certain topic and demonstrate his knowledge. Then, during teacher time, the teacher could ask that the student listen just like he does when the student presents his information.
