Please, I need you to participate…

I was observing some classes this week and wondering why some students

feel safe enough to share more than they should

and

why other students sit quietly in the back.

I know the quiet ones have so much depth and important things to say. But, how do we get them to open up?

These are some of the ways I have noticed students more willing to participate in class.

Pay attention, please…

Sometimes

it is the students who are bored

and

sometimes it is the instructor who is boring.

Engaged students pay attention.
