Managing Fatigue in High School Classrooms
High school classrooms have a major problem; students can’t seem to stay awake long enough to participate in classroom activities. This causes a decrease in high school student academic performance. My research question aimed to answer the following question: “How can a secondary education teacher manage the effects of fatigue to improve the performance of high school students?” Studies on fatigue in secondary school settings show that there are three ways to help improve student academic performance, sleep and memory encoding. These three ways include sleep education, later school start times and stretching rituals before class.
