My research into the academic work shows-
That teaching-learning is effective only when it has a marketing orientation- not that students are customers.
I mean methods followed need to be appropriate for the students on hand. Tough projects for school kids are essentially done by parents or others, for example.
In-class work is as important as home work.. maybe more, as it can be directly supervised.
Collaboration needs to be taught through examples, like group assignments.
Evaluation should be multi-modal, with a viva of some sort, or presentations, included.
Feedback should be honest, and if possible, constructive.
Clear goals written in a course outline help.
Many teachers fail on some of the above.
