Case: Messy Classroom
I have successfully included students experiencing phenomena and engaging in inquiry in my classes. My students are engaged and seem to enjoy my class. Unfortunately, even when I remember to have students clean up at the end of each period, I still seem to have to clean up the lab area for at least a half hour at the end of each day. Any help?
Solution: (Rates are posted for this solution!)
I believe that it would be useful to assign students jobs in the the beginning of the week. For instance, you can assign a desk cleaner, floor monitor, materials gatherer, and lab technician. For clarification, a lab technician can properly shut down the technology that is used. Jobs can be modified to help your needs. They can also be rotated. In addition, if you have groups, each member can be assign a role. I would provide students with 15 minutes at the end of the class to clean up their classroom. If needed, an incentive/privilege can be given to students who complete their assigned roles correctly. |

| Comments: Job assignments work well with promoting responsibility in a classroom. I also think that part of the scientific learning process must include all aspects and a well prepared lab is of utmost importance. |

| Comments: If I was in this situation, I would not use this solution. It's not always pratical to stop class 15 minutes prior to it ending. |

| Comments: Students should not be rewarded for simply following instruction. Perhaps a better way to implement this would be to reward the group who cleans above and beyond expectation. |
