Teachers sometimes can not imagine how important the activities are for our learning. In classes students are unmotivated and wanting to be in somewhere else or waiting for the end of the class.
These happen because most of the time teachers are guided by guidelines and do activities that aren´t close to our lives. So students don´t feel a conexion with the class and they prefer to talk with their friends, sleep, be outside or do something not related with the activities, because for them English or any subject don´t have any sense.
I believe that games can help to motivate students, because teachers need to try new ways of teaching. We need that students participate in activities, and for this schools and teachers must stop using old methods that don´t help us in anything to improve the education.
If this situation doesn´t change the education could never improve. Students in the future will be working in something not related with what they want, because never someone or something shows or says him/her that they were good and intelligent.
It is very important being always there for the students and constantly motivating them.

Hi Franny !
ReplyDeleteI liked what you wrote. It is an interesting topic, thats why I chose motivation because I think it is a real problem these days.
I agree with you about the guidelines of the teachers. I havent thought that, maybe sometimes teachers want to do something different but they cant, because the schools have their rules and proyects. I think that in this job we will have to be always trying to change things without break the rules.
Take care.

To make a chid feel part of his educational process is, in my opinion, the base to develope his/her motivation towards that process.
ReplyDeleteTeacher's also should feel part of the process, being proactive agents, willing to innovate further than what the guideline for the class says.
good post!
