Relevance

I have found that students become more involved if you can show that it material is relevant to the student and their daily living or education. It reminds me of the movie "Peggy Sue Got Married." She is transported back to her high school days. She is in her seat in her Algebra class and painting her nails and not paying attention. The teacher gets her attention and the need to concentrate on Algebra. Peggy's response was "I know for a fact I will never use Algebra as an adult." As you can see Peggy did not get the subject as relevant.
