who are brimming with ideas to do their work but fail to organize them according to priority to generate results.I took adv. of this gap. I send them a work schedule for the week e.g. Mon and Tue - Concept based classes, Wed- Worksheet on the concepts, Thursday- research on real life implications on the concepts and Friday discussion on the worksheet responses and feedback to improve them. This way I have tried to do away with the monotony of lecture based classes. More so the practice of writing down concepts with specific submission deadlines ensures regularity in studies and also better understanding and sometimes leads to self clarification of the concepts taught.The purpose of allowing them to research is to align their theoretical black and white knowledge with the colorful changes in the real world and finally discussion of the responses is help them identify the gaps in analyzing/ applying their concepts. To add on I do not take classes for more then 35 mins. , with 5/7 mins.[whichever is suitable] break in case it is a double lesson I plan to take.
