I was forced, in effect, to learn.” Forced engagement in a classroom is what should occur in a lecture hall, however the sad truth may be that most students do not even retain most information given during a class. Most professors do not require attendance to such courses because of the inability to keep track of…
between professor and student. Conclusion To conclude, multitasking is a process that poses negative threats on student’s academic life. I have shown how multitasking threatens student’s brain function and also its negative influence in college classrooms. Firmly put, college students can find other positive ways that they can get their work done. Multitasking will only slow them down, harm them, and cause them to perform undesirably in their courses. Many members of our society may believe…
In the case of separation of twins in classrooms, the policies could cause lasting damage to twins. In a poll on Facebook, participants were asked, “Should schools have a policy regarding the placement of twins in classrooms?” Most participants agreed that the policy should be to consult the parent (Isom). It’s not abnormal for the parents of twins to disagree with…
The class began with Professor Green standing quietly at her podium eagerly focusing in on us. As everyone noticed, slowly the classroom became quiet. All attention was directed to Professor Green and all her attention was directed back to us. In silence, facial expressions and body language are the methods of communication. This was the first activity in which we became tuned in and focused on the tone and expression of the room. We joined together in an exercise in which everyone walked…
I think that the infants feel really happy. The reason why I say this is because they all seem to have fun like the girl who crawl her way to the basket of different rattles. She liked the sound of the rattle when it hit the bottom of the bucket so she continued to put more of the rattles into the bucket. The boy crawler was having fun by beating his hands down on to the fruit box, possibly making music in his own eyes. Then the boy decided to try and put a block, that was nearby, and put it…
Mrs.Popich is a Spanish I teacher at Infinity Early College High School. Mrs.Popich made her students say “present” in Spanish in order for her to take attendance. The teacher questioned students that arrived late to her classroom that did not have a pass. Before Mrs.Popich stared class, she made her students read the objectives and agenda from the whiteboard that were in Spanish. The lesson for that day consisted of learning about the culture of Brazil. Mrs.Popich mentioned a man named Milton…
McLean’s English classroom, I was immediately greeted by shouts of joy and hoots from the students in the class, and it took about 5 minutes to get the students’ undivided attention. The desks of the students were set up independently and positioned to face the board of the classroom which showed a body paragraph that the class was writing as a whole. The learning taking place in the classroom was very interactive and very much guided by Ms. McLean’s analysis…
III. Case Study: Fisher Elementary with Mrs. Torrent’s 1st Grade Class For about 6 weeks this spring semester, I had been visiting Fisher Elementary that is part of Northside ISD. It is located on 3430 Barrel Pass by 1604 and Highway 90. This area in particular is very well known to be heavy populated by a lot of military families for the reason that the area is very close to Lackland Air Force Base. Many of those active in the military come from different parts of the country in which brings…

Desk Assist Inc. Problem: Everyday students attend educational intuitions to advance their knowledge, and they all/most face a similar problem that nearly every student will agree with—not enough desk space. Most of the time, students are forced to choose between either taking notes on a computer which takes up the entire desk, or taking notes by hand in a binder which takes up the entire desk. Notes by computer aren’t necessarily always the most efficient way to take notes, and the same…
