Reflection: Tips for teachers to improve popular students learning

Whole class work rather than group workIt motivates students and let them feel they belong to the class (Harmer, 2001)

Make eye contact and target your questions to re-involve them (Kyriacou, 2007)

Keep them busy

Data analysis: Neglected student

Unsociable and less interactionShyUnnoticeable by peersTend to work alone (not engaged in

group work.)High academic performance

Their low level in interaction (neglected students) doesn’t mean they are low skilled than average kids (Berk, 2009).

Being neglected can be impermanent (Berk, 2009).

Reflection: Tips for teachers to improve neglected students learning
