If you strive to make the educational process more fun, effective and engaging for students,
these 
 or the ideas provided below will help you in this matter!
(
)
Get pupils engaged and
ask for their opinion.
Creating a closed chat
only for your class or a
special Twitter account
will help you
communicate with the
students and ask them to
give feedbacks about what
is going on in the
classroom.
Make it fun.
No matter if it is a fourth-grader or a senior – everybody loves having a good time, and the
modern world gives us numerous engaging “gaming” opportunities that make learning rather
interesting and not less effective!
Invite a guest.
Such tools as Skype make it possible to invite a guest from any part of the globe to your
classroom and you can benefit from this; for example, if you have a Spanish lesson – you can
invite a native speaker to join you. Such lesson will be very informative and interesting.
Let students be creative.
Include some creative activities such as photo, video or animated presentations, interesting
tasks, contests and so on – this will help students to reflect their creativity and engage in the
process.
Encourage teamwork.
Offer pupils to gather in small groups (or even work all together in a large group) to perform a
task together – this will teach them to work in a team and will make the whole process more
interesting.
Simulations as a powerful educational tool.
Different types of simulations can be rather helpful both in the learning and teaching process
because although they are presented in the form of games, they are rather difficult to perform
and thus, can be very effective in the classroom!
