"The mark of... something about it" (103-104). Although this quote is exaggerated, at the same time it is very true. If a teacher is passionate about the subject they teach, they can teach the students anything as it is clear that it holds significance. Another important idea is breaking away from the book and using multiple resources which will engage students. Many of the most important learning occurs through real life experiences, thus the teacher should work to get away from traditional methods and work with students' intelligences.
Another important aspect is in making sure that students understand. One student's quote states that he has informed teachers before that he does not understand, yet he has simply been urged to complete the work anyway. Teachers can not expect students to care about mastering material if they themselves are not interested in student mastery.
