Article summary: The article advocates the move towards adapting and fixing our educational systems. It highlights the importance setting guidelines and goals that fit the student's interests. In doing so, boredom in the classroom would be less of an issue. Teachers should look at boredom through a positive light, rather than self blaming and scrutinizing, teachers should think about what interests them. When a child lacks direction, understanding or is unable to relate, boredom happens. Teachers should constantly provide meaning, clear goals, and opportunities to examine competencies. Teachers should observe and assess what and how they present lessons to the kids, self assessing, providing variations and backup plans keep each child involved and interested.
