  Case: Students on iPad
I am having a hard time integrating actual teaching into the classroom due to the fact that my students use Edgenuity. This is an online education program. I in my internship,however, have to be sure to teach these students. When I try to teach a lesson though (TEBD students) my students get mad and do not want to listen. Edgenuity allows students to have a lot of freedom and in class instruction does not. What am I to do? I am discouraged to teach my students.
Solution: (Rates are posted for this solution!)
I would do engaging activities that involve hand-on participation. This is something that cannot be done on the computer and will more likely grasp their attention. If you wanted to incorporate the technology element with the lesson, you could have the enter data or write a response on a class blog about the activity. Science activities may be the best to use to start engaging students with.

Comments: I believe hands on participation might change the minds of the student on the lesson. I do believe if you are going to try hands on participation then you should maybe try to keep the iPads out of the picture all together.

Comments: I believe that hands on learning will fully engage your students. I think by using technology after the lesson the students get what they want but the teacher reaches their goals.

Comments: I 100% agree... the ipads are distracting and they fight so finding activities that truly grasp their attention are important in helping combat this issue.
