Carol,
That is a good point. Instructors throughout time (it seems) have had to deal with students who are not willing to be engaged. A multitude of reasons- boredom, low self esteem, they don't see the benefit of being in your class, etc. Ultimately, the onus is on them. Believe me, I have had students who were not interested in me, my materials or school in general. It was just something for them to do. Sometimes, the instructors just can't do anything more.
