Reducing the Number of Sleepy Students’ in the Class during Learning: In the Case of Third Year Plant Science Students
Abstract
A nap is a short period of sleep, usually taken during the day. Action research was conducted at Debark University, college of agriculture and environmental sciences for 3rd-year plant science students with the sleepy students in the class room. The general objective was reducing the number of sleepy students in the case of plant science third year students. Then identified problems help to plan the intervention for further work. We have prepared questioners for those students with open and closed ended questionnaires; in addition to that we have carried out an interview with them and observations so as to address the objectives of the study. Both quantitative and qualitative approaches were used. The data were generated from primary sources. The primary data were collected from 7 students using questionnaires. Data from the questionnaire were analyzed using the Statistical Package for Social Sciences (SPSS version 20). To reduce the number of sleepy student in the class room, we implemented different innervations like bring them in front seat, open the class room windows, giving tasks to them, making the lecturing method more attractive, and participatory. We could reduce the number of sleepy students from 7 to 3 then further works are suggested. The method of lecturing should not be boring, able to use attractive teaching material and others, make the class room environment favorable to learn (good) aeration, make the learning process participatory, advising the student on planed time management, giving a task for the sleepy student to present or to share idea, try to call by their name for those students having sleepiness problem in the class and others are suggestions or recommendation for next cycle.
