chapter 4: Creating a Culture of Success

In this chapter we are enlightened on how to react to the variety of students we have, why does Vance have a hard time asking questions and how can I change that?
I was like Vance in high school; I never wanted to answer a question unless I was absolutely sure that I knew the answer. I was timid and this caused my 4th grade teacher test me for comprehension issues. She told my mom that I should be tested because I never raise my hand. From reading this chapter, I realized the importance of pushing our students. They have voices and must show them off. Vance was afraid of being wrong, so we should encourage people like him to speak up even if they may be wrong. After all, other people may be thinking the same think as he or she and if they speak up you can correct their questions and concerns about the subject.
