  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!)
In general, it can be a challenge to move from teacher led instruction towards student led learning. The goal is to keep "teacher talk" to a minimum and allow the students to explore on their own and draw some of their own conclusions. There is a time a place for "explanation" but if you engage the students first and allow them to explore on their own, than they will be eager to hear what you have to say.
