There can be several reasons why students struggle in the traditional classroom setting. Here are just a few.
- Pupils sit at individual desks, often in rows and listen to a teacher lecture. There is very little interaction this way.
- When students are asked questions by the teacher, the same kids tend to raise their hands, leaving others excluded.
- It is very rare that students ask questions on their own.
- When non-lecture work time is allotted, interaction between students is often not related to the current work.
- Some students will finish lessons early and engage in non-school activities while others will struggle to even finish the assignment given.
