Entrance Slip-Inquiry Topic Possibilities

The three areas of education I am passionately interested in may be engaging students in classes, evaluating my teaching methods and helping students apply what they learn in their daily lives. If students can't focus in classes, they can't learn anything so I think it is important to engage students in classes. The possible way to do it is to integrate innovative games and interesting videos into the classes. Also I want to know whether my style of teaching is effective and helpful to students. If students do not get what I expect them to know, my teaching effort is totally wasted and so I really need to find ways (e.g., feedback forms or other indirect methods??) to evaluate my teaching method for later refining or modification. The final area that I want to investigate is how to help students apply what they learn in classes. I always hear that students complain about what they learn at school is not applicable to their daily lives. Therefore, I hope I can find a way (e.g., design projects) to help them apply their knowledge in practical use.

After discussing with Ashley, she suggested I can create some homework related to students' daily lives so that they can see how their knowledge can be applied.
