Yes, I agree the stress class was great, as instructors we are extreme multitaskers and after a certain period of time we can become very stressed, but because we are so busy we  tend to not notice until we are showng symptms.

I have a great deal of trouble remembering my students names I have approximately 40 new students every 6 weeks and sometimes I find it very hard to remember their names. Does anyone have any ideas on how I can remember their names better?
As a student myself I find that when the syllabus is a bit wordy I'm reluctant to read it, I sometimes procrastinate. Is it ok to make the syllabus simple and to the point?

@alldes1017 : This is so nice and motivational, your right the things we say, think or do are.

A great way to keep these type of students engaged would be to blend the use of the internet and electronic gadgets into their learning experience.
As for me this has worked out just fine they are only allowed to text me. This helps a lot when they are not going to come in for class or going to be late, as I do not have to call them myself it is a big time saver.

A situation that can become an issue would be when the student does not have internet at home and is unable to complete some of the computer assignments, due to lack of computer access.
