Summary
Teachers invest significant time and effort in engagement strategies like icebreakers, games, and speaking activities, but many students respond with apathy, complaints, or outright refusal. Despite trying numerous research-based techniques, educators are unable to motivate a large segment of students to participate, leading to severe frustration, burnout, and a decline in teaching quality. Administrative support is often lacking, and no effective solutions exist for this widespread disengagement.
