Monitor Screenagers In-class Engagement and Learning with Interactive eWorkbooks-Google Forms

When pilots fly airplanes they continually get instant feedback as they monitor the location, weather, time, and many, many other factors. And I’m glad they do because monitoring and feedback keep people safe.
But when Screenagers walk into a classroom they may or may not get feedback until they get their first quiz scores back, and that can 3 weeks, 5 weeks, or even longer. Even as a professional seminar leader, back in the day, I wasn’t able to monitor learning and engagement other than evals at the end.

Do you think that’s fair?

What if there were free tools for teachers, trainers, and even parents, to monitor and continually collect learning analytics to give feedback to improve and support engagement and learning?

4 Steps To Curate A Safe Place To Fail: Engaging Screenagers

4 Steps To Curate A Safe Place To Fail: Engaging Screenagers In school, don’t we teach students they are to give the right answer or they fail? In life, don’t those who fail the most become the most successful? Aren’t we somehow missing the picture in education? Isn’t there a way to let students learn that failing is just learning what doesn’t work? Why is this important? Michael Jordan and Jack Ma are both famous for failing and they are both quite successful because they learned to turn failure into learning and kept trying.

Engaging By Encouraging Screenagers Or Breaking Them Down? 3 skills you need to set a growth tone and Encourage Engaging Screenagers to their best. Are you continually encouraging screenagers? Are you continually telling them how to improve? (Doesn’t his imply they are not good enough?) The highest level of encouragement is to make Screenagers (and we’re all Screenagers) feel awesome for wanting to do more. It’s about setting a tone; it’s about creating an environment. Have you ever had a teacher, coach, manager, or trainer who everyone respected (loved, feared, believed) and yet expected from you (and you achieved) more than you thought you could? They created an environment of  high value, optimal engagement . Those leaders in your life were able to set a tone, where everyone around them excelled in what they did. As  I was leading the Dale Carnegie Public Speaking Course , that’s what I was to do with each of the 35-45 class members every day. I focused on

Why Connect With Your Teachers Engaging Screenagers?

Why Connect With Your Teachers Engaging Screenagers? Why should I connect with my instructor many Engaging Screenagers ask? In secondary/high school and undergraduate studies, I rarely talked to my teachers/instructors. It’s interesting how the most Engaging Screenagers (aren’t we are all now?) talk to their friends, but when it comes to sharing with education (authority figures?) things get much more quiet. When I was leading the Dale Carnegie course in public speaking, a large part of my duties was to get to know the class members and help the connect what they learned in class to solve problems in their personal and professional lives. When I was in school, the teachers/instructors mainly connected what we learned in class to solve problems on the exam. Other than get high marks on the exam, get a good job, and and live happily ever after, the exams connected to little. In graduate school, things were different. Professors were more like guides as we were all t
