Mind: Teachers and "PAY ATTENTION" !

As it shows. The title already explains itself.

For most teachers, getting attention and interest of the students would be a great challenge. Yet, it is still considered as normal? Well I agree in a sense that being a teacher surely that challenge is the main ingredient in education ethos itself.

Beautifully, I would suggest a different perspective. The students simply do not attracted enough to 'buy' stuffs we are offering!

And, why is that?

Well, I think it is quite similar when we ask why people buy certain products and why other products they don't?

Is there anything wrong with the teachers? The school infrastructures? PPD? or the educational system as a whole! Wow...wow... I am not going into that extreme here ok. Even though it is indeed already an issue.

As I said, and in addition to that, thats not teachers faults, nor the others. It is simply the students do not attracted enough to 'buy' stuffs (subjects taught) we are offering. Or at least they are not yet ready to willingly 'buy' anything at the moment. Nobody's faults involves! Thats the nature...

I believe we just have to understand this natural custom and act accordingly to achieve our formal and informal educational missions and vision.

One might ask if thats the case, then what is exactly happening by the time a teacher is in the class with fully equipped, motivationally driven, giving all sorts of materials needed, even the class is neatly designed, in short, " I have done everything...!", and yet the students refuse to even 'paying' a 'penny' of their attention or interest!

Thats painful! Frustrating!

I know, trust me I do. I am a teacher for almost a decade now. I know exactly what that kind of feeling is...

So, what exactly is happening?

My dear, we were actually had done the right things. I mean our engagement with all of the advance equipments, super duper teaching techniques, materially and morally supports from all others...

We are doing the right thing and with the right way...

We are just not that PERSUASIVE enough!


Allah s.w.t jua yang Maha Mengetahui segalanya.




The answer...
