I’ve been reading articles all afternoon that correlate classroom management techniques to Teen Brain behavior. Actually I copied most and put them on my jump drive so I can read them tonight with greater focus. This seems to be a closer alignment to my search for methods to facilitate increased participation of my 9^th grade students. I am extremely interested in techniques to generate self-confidence, curiosity and good problem-solving skills. I want my students to be excited by their discovery of their skills and ability, not necessarily a joy for science. I’ll be deepening this study as the course continues!
