These Engaging Screenagers are ‘responsible’ for interacting, exploring, choosing, learning, looking, finding, etc. all day every day, and isn’t much their content ‘customized’ based on their interests? When they walk into the university lecture hall don’t we want them to have responsibility customization? #Screenagers, #Engaging, #EngagingScreenagers, #WarrenLINGER,

7 Keys Engaging Screenagers Best Improve Their Learning Time

7 Ways Engaging Screenagers Best Improve Their Learning Time In life it has been my experience that believing in yourself has more to do with success than most any other factor. Don’t you agree? When you believe in yourself then you make the decisions that support your success. Often, we hear complaints about how Engaging Screenagers (aren’t we all now) are not making the best decisions with their time, but are we helping them learn how to use their time for what’s most important? Are they learning to, as Stephen Covey says, “Put first things first?” The 7 Habits of Highly Effective People: Powerful Lessons in Personal Change For example deciding not to play video games for hours on end (a few minutes for a break is great, but long term it becomes  junk-engagement)  can open those hours for hours on end of learning ( optimal engagement .)    In the following I will describe what I learned when I went back to Graduate school, but I realize (now)...

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...
