Hi Don:

One technique that may also work well is to have the instructor walk around while lecturing, bringing a closer physical proximity to the student.
This is not always a practical solution, and may not work for certain course work.

Being in the office setting for so many years, I have practically a story to fit every situation. Relating the learning to a real world office experience draws the student attention back in because this is something they may experience first hand when they enter the field.

Does anyone have a trick for the students that resort to their cell phone and/or facebook? It can get out of hand but I have fairly good control of my class. However, it is difficult to re-engage students that appear to be off-task. Any suggestions to re-engage the newest and youngest generation of technological learners?

In cases with a large group, I team-up the off-task student with a coach who shows competency in the task. A follow through exercise is then assigned to the off-task student to be performed. It is always beneficial for the off-task student to feel that he/she can work on the procedure on his own.

When I observe students getting off-task, I try to see where they get stuck in the procedure, employ "scaffolding" by coaching to redirect the mistake to correct solution, and follow-through with a similar exercise.
