Hands-On

Hands-on - Make students active participants in learning.

Students learn by doing, making, writing, designing, creating, solving. Passivity dampens students' motivation and curiosity. Pose questions. Don't tell students something when you can ask them. Encourage students to suggest approaches to a problem or to guess the results of an experiment. Use small group work. See "Leading a Discussion," "Supplements and Alternatives to Lecturing," and "Collaborative Learning" for methods that stress active participation. (Source: Lucas, 1990)

It is also noted that student who less academic incline tends to learn better with their "hands". Therefore, in our lesson delivery we can incorporate more hands-on portion for this group of students. Careful planning, designing and structuring of of lesson will have them motivated to learn.
