Student Frustrations

I have seen an issue where a student's frustration with a government agency almost derailed her in class. This external frustration occupied so much of her thought processes that she couldn't focus on what she was doing. Learning to recognize those issues in students and redirecting their focus will be one of the major challenges for us as instructors.

Absolutely Luis,
An easy way is first the "Impact Statement" and then to keep the energy flowing throughout your lesson.

I feel you also need to read the student and look for changes in their actions and participation so you can reconise issues.

It really becomes a part of instructing that you learn to recognize change in a student so that the concern can be worked on before they loss sight or ability to pass the course
