Stickers on Teachers, anyone?
And if no sticker? No problem! There’s lipstick, powder (don’t look now, one Teacher is about to attempt charcoal)!
Thanks to a Parent forwarding an article from the Washington Post, we got this idea to spur Pupil engagement in online classes. Said a professor of education psychology: “We need to do these kinds of exercises to help pull students out and make them feel like they’re actually engaging with real people.”
So what happened is, for every Pupil who participated in class, or got a correct answer in Maths, that is = to 1 sticker or mark on Teacher’s face!
And we tried it from PreSchool to Pre-University; take a look at the responses! Some got such a kick out of it, and some did not react at all! But for the Teachers, it was worth being silly for, if only to get Pupils to engage more! So hopefully through this post, other Teachers may try it too!
