This week’s “question-of-the-week” comes from Fitta Astriyani:
How can I deal with unmotivated students? I’m a little bit frustrated when I know my students don’t do their homework and sometimes they talk during my lessons.
Please share your thoughts in the comments or, if you prefer, feel free to email them to me. The response to this question will be a multi-part series, so there will be plenty of space for readers’ suggestions.
You can also send questions to me at lferlazzo@epe.org.When you send one in, let me know if I can use your real name if it’s selected or if you’d prefer remaining anonymous and have a pseudonym in mind.
Another option is contacting me on Twitter at @Larryferlazzo.
Anyone whose question is selected for this weekly column can choose one free book from a variety of education publishers. I’ll be highlighting one particular publisher every two months, and will be ending this year with Stenhouse.
