Think about one of your recent presentations. Was there a student who was inattentive? How could you involve that student and draw him/her into the le

There are always students who are inattentive and I always wonder how I can keep them paying attention. At the same time it is hard for me to say anything to them because I always used to sleep in class too. Partially because I was tired but mostly because I wasn't interested in the material being taught (and that's kind of common sense, if something is exciting it will keep my interest and I won't be going to sleep) so to me that is saying that I need to make my classes more interesting so that I don't have sleepers. Often I try to use humor and wit to keep kids interested, I feel like this is fairly successful. They say they enjoy my class a lot more then their other classes so hopefully they are more attentive to what I say then in their other classes.
