<strong>Student</strong> <strong>Interest</strong> [CLOs: 1, 2, 3]<br />
“Do I have to leave?” “I can’t wait to learn more!!”<br />
These are the things we want to hear our students<br />
say when they are in our classroom. It is a given<br />
that if students are interested in the content, they
will be more motivated to learn it. We want our<br />
students to be excited about what they are<br />
learning. Sousa and Tomlinson (2011) state that<br />
“Attending to student interest in a classroom<br />
suggests a desire on the teacher’s part to capitalize<br />
on those things a student cares about in order to<br />
facilitate learning” (p. 113).<br />
Imagine it is the beginning of the school year and<br />
you want to get to know the interests of your<br />
students. Using SurveyMonkey (be sure to register<br />
for a free account), design a survey with 10<br />
questions to gather knowledge about student<br />
interest. Post the link to the survey and then<br />
respond to the following questions:<br />
differentiate your instruction based on student<br />
interest?
not like mathematics, but they loved football? How<br />
might you draw upon their football interest to<br />
motivate the student during math instruction?<br />
assignment that you had no interest in completing.<br />
Consider how that teacher might have<br />
differentiated the activity based a personal<br />
interest and describe how this relates to one of the<br />
seven themes of addressing student interest in the<br />
classroom found on page 116 of our text.<br />
Use the text to support your opinions.<br />
Guided Response: Review a number of your<br />
classmates’ posts and respond to at least two<br />
surveys. Consider contributing additional<br />
questions that your classmate could add to the<br />
survey that may have not been included and<br />
provide your rationale. How might the additional
questions you suggest support student learning<br />
based on interest? Be sure to respond to any<br />
queries or comments posted by your instructor.
