Few teachers would deny that motivated students are easier to teach, or that students who are interested in learning do, in fact, learn more. So how do teachers motivate their students? Here are some practiced, tried-and true strategies to get (and keep) your students interested in learning. Know your students' names and use their names as often as possible. Plan for every class; never try to wing it. Pay attention to the strengths and limitations of each of your students. Reward their strengths and strengthen their weaknesses. If possible, set your room in a U-shape to encourage interaction among students. Vary your instructional strategies; use lectures, demonstrations, discussions, case studies, groups, and more.

We are really excited. We are expanding AirKlip with a new platform and it would be awesome to have you around. We plan to launch in early July.  The new AirKlip ver3.0 is aimed at putting more control in your hands as the user of the app. The new update will not replace anything that’s existing but instead it will have an easier way of getting timetables on the platform combined with additional features that will better suit the way students work and collaborate.

Our start week update just even got better. When you have such a team of “life- curious individuals”, they tend to rub on some little knowledge on you. We have always been at the fore front in engaging our users as well as our avid readers and this week is no different. In fact, I think we have more to gain by sharing the little knowledge we have. I do not mean to belittle the expertise that our team has, but I believe that we as still further away from the ultimate knowledge we seek. However, let me pick your brain. Brian had an  OK  weekend. Seemingly he decided to change the script by being nocturnal- sleeping the whole day and “hunting for code” during the night. He actually claimed to enjoy the freedom that was bestowed to him but at times we question if loneliness can really be called freedom. No harm in pointing out that. He had immense psych for the coming week and he couldn’t tell why he was happy.  He had a change of mind shift I guess and we al...
