Who asked this question?
Who answered this question?
What do they need to know about
students? And how?
As an educator, people often ask me how I know what is going on in the minds of my students. Many students are quite shy and don’t speak all that much. At the same time, in a classroom of more than forty students, it is hard to have many one-on-one conversations with each person. So, how can I really know what makes each student tick?
My answer? I look at their body language.
