I think the more interactive a class is, the more exciting it can be. It is important to realize that some of these students are physically, emotionally tired as they come to class. So instead of having a class with a lot of sensory interaction, i try to incorporate verbal interaction. This will enable students to voice their opinions and be interactive.
Philip,
yes, we want to keep that initial enthusiasm & excitement alive.

I agree. I've found that in culinary arts classes, most of the students have grown up watching cooking demonstrations on the Food Network, and thats how they fell in love with cooking. I try to demostrate as much as possible and have the students replicate the demo on thier oun. This helps to keep them engaged.
