I have been receiving several emails from teachers from all around the world asking for back-to-school resources. So instead of responding to each one individually I make a post and share it with everybody here. I am also having a hectic life, extremely busy with my PhD studies and all the readings and research that it entails. I am saying this because I do find it hard to catch up with my mail and respond to your inquiries.

Engaging students has become increasingly difficult as technology has continued to shape our culture. Overheads, DVDs, and lecturing just don’t cut it. This is a generation of students growing up with YouTube, Vimeo, and Khan Academy to name a few. So many creative, eye grabbing, funny videos to choose from, and all of them are available on a device that fits in their pocket.

Teachers definitely need to be innovative enough in order to make their class room sessions more interesting, although a note of caution is that this needs to be done taking into consideration the amount of the syllabus that needs to be covered, time limits, and yes, remember, 'familiarity breeds contempt!' Most twenty-first century skills ready schools will have WiFi access and overhead projectors in their classrooms. This technology in itself is useful in making lessons more interesting. In many cases, students can themselves be called to the docking station and surf the net for specific information. One catch though is that the facilitator needs to have a strong control over how technology is used, and he or she should have a good enough idea about which sites to viisit, whether it is Ted Talks, or Khan Academy, or any other such site. In many cases it has been noticed that the use of technology has made students lazy, as for example, they refer to ready made notes available on the net, like Spark Notes, for the teaching of literature without even thinking of understanding the question and what they are reading on the net. Some students would even copy paste material from the net ditto. That is when they need to be told about the harms of Plagiarism. Simulation is another wonderful tool that can help make learning more interesting. Take for example role play or drammatisation of plays in the syllabus. Role play or drammatisation can be supported by a screening of an except from a particular play and then students can be asked to model their performance on the basis of what they have been shown in class.

This fall there will be teachers trying the flipped classroom approach to lessons for the first time. In the right setting the flipped classroom model can work well. My favorite tools for creating flipped lessons include the option to insert questions for students to answer while watching the video instead of waiting until the end to answer a series of questions.
