Cindy Moore is a good student who completes all her work and takes pleasure in discussion during her English class. She, however, refuses to participate in the discussion despite being completely attentive. How might her teacher promote a more active, verbal experience for her in the class?
  1. Have a private conference with her to discuss what is going on socially
  2. Make a point of calling on her to get her opinion during discussion
  3. Change the grading system so that participation is a bigger part of the course grade
  4. Have a private conference in which she tells Cindy that if she participates she will be rewarded with a better grade
Explanation
Answer: D - Have a private conference in which she tells Cindy that if she participates she will be rewarded with a better grade. The teacher cannot solve Cindy’s social problems, if they exist. The teacher should not create a situation that potentially brings negative attention to Cindy. The teacher should motivate Cindy to try harder to participate, as that is a part of the course expectations.
