Case: The never ending question
Why do I need to learn this? Ill never use this stuff again?!
We all know that we are bound to get this question.... at least 5 times.
What are some ways we, as teachers, can help relate the classwork to real life problems and situations?
Solution: (Rates are posted for this solution!)
The best way to relate classwork to real life problems and solutions is to incorporate projects that show the students how they relate to real life. For example, in math we can use a pie to demonstrate fractions. For science, we can use the "Drops on a Penny" lesson plan to demonstrate surface tension. It helps to get students involved in their learning in a meaningful way that they will remember. |

Comments: I like this idea because along with showing students real examples of how information they are learning can be applied to real life, interactive activities such as these help students develop a better understanding of the content they are learning. |
