  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!)
Students fall asleep from time to time in class. The teacher having to be an "entertainer" is not the solution. Lessons do need to be engaging but sometimes students need to move around. I have seen very few students fall asleep standing up. If a student falls asleep Mrs. Will needs to instruct the student to stand in the back of the room and take notes while standing. This is an approach she may try.

Comments: I don't think forcing a student to stand and take notes will solve anything. It is kind of embarrassing to single out a student and make them stand in the back of the classroom. I feel like teachers should take the time to find out why their student is so tired and try to keep them awake in a different way.
