Case: Team participation
I teach an afterschool STEAM program which requires team participation. This class gives the students a lot of freedom, however, I have two students in one group that rarely participate. Most of the time the two students are meowing to each other and pretending to be cats. I can get them to participate when I assign them a task that interests them, but this is usually a task I would consider as busy work. I would really like them to get the most out of the group task that I present them with and not just do busy work. How can I get them to participate more and not be a distraction to others?
Solution: (Rates are posted for this solution!)
This is always a tough task to take on. Often times I find that when students don’t want to participate, nothing will get in their way of slacking off or ignoring their work. Its almost like they have their mind made up about not doing their work. It definitely helps when the activity has components that interest the student such as a topic, hobby, etc. When you give them activities that interest them, and they seem like “busy work” activities, I understand how that can feel frustrating to you. Try developing lessons and activities that include their interests but also focus on the content you’re introducing to all the other students. Find relevant media that may engage students. Or, you could try something as simple as verbal praise? “Wow, Johnny is doing an AMAZING job working his way through this activity!” Maybe the verbal praise will give the student the “attention” its seems like they’re craving while also getting them involved in the work. |

| Comments: I agree with the solution. Trying to incorporate the students interests in the content being studied may encourage the students to participate in the activities. Also, incorporating relevant media and appropriate praise can also work to motivate students and spark their interest in the content being learned. |

| Comments: I really like this solution. Providing verbal praise to students who seem to "crave" attention is a way to help positively get them involved in completing the task at hand. I also think that it would be a great idea to bring student interest into teaching to ensure that students are engaged in interested in the content that they are learning. |

| Comments: These are very relevant and reasonable solutions to this case. Including personal connections can be helpful. Even if the topic has to be specific to the lesson plan there can still be some creativity used to include real life connections. Verbal praise is a respectful and positive way to help change students behavior. |
