Re: please help As someone who is cursed out by students in a variety of languages (including my own), I can tell you what I do. I make their lives in school a living hell. I will call on them when I know they haven't prepared for class. I will ask them why, when they have so much to say, is the correct answer to my question not one of those things. I reward the well-behaved, respectful students with praise and I whither the miscreants with sarcasm and derision. It may not be enlightened pedagogy, but it works for me in my environment.
This is called behavior modification. |
