Anyone want to share experiences, thoughts and ideas with me? I am that point in the term where seminars feel increasingly painful. Most of my students do not do the reading. Their recall from lectures is quite poor (assuming they attend lectures). I try to inject energy into the sessions but am often met with blank stares, and lots of 'I don't knows.' Often I find myself at the front of the room wondering what on earth the students actually want from it. I'm in social sciences, and at a mid-ranking university, with OK-ish but not the highest entry standards (and many students do not have English as a first language). Anyone deal with similar and if so, what do you do?
