Being a former student of Lisa Morehouse, in which I too will become a High School teacher soon I strongly believe that variety of different tactics to engage your students to be more passionate about learning is the way to go. I've been told that teachers are required to stick to a strict teaching plan (I'm not sure of the truth to this) but I have witnessed instances where there is little room for teachers to free style, to teach in more modern, interesting ways that may appeal to the students.
I just hope that when I become a teacher, I can have space to do my job. that is, not only to teach but to broaden my kids thinking and to give them tools to become passionate or in the less interested.
