  Case: Sleeping in Class
Mrs. Will has noticed that some of her students are falling asleep in class which leads them to not grasping the content of the lesson and scoring lower on tests. What can Mrs. Will do to keep these students awake and ensure that they've learned the lessons?
Solution: (Rates are posted for this solution!)
Mrs. Will could do more group based instruction or station teaching. The group instruction should have assigned task for each member so they will all be involved in the learning process. During station teaching, students are continuously moving which keeps them active in the learning as well.

Comments: I agree; the movement and the group involvement may help keep the students alert, especially if they are falling asleep during lecture-style presentations. The students may not be auditory learners, and lean toward a kinesthetic method of learning.
