Janet Is Doing Well in All of Her Other Classes

Essay

Janet is doing well in all of her other classes, but is struggling in her World Cultures class. Janet doesn't find the material terribly difficult, but she gets incredibly distracted during the exams. The reason for this is that the teacher does not maintain a good learning environment; students are constantly chatting and using their cell phones during class. Janet tried discussing the problem with her teacher, but he told Janet that he was retiring at the end of the semester and didn't want to deal with paperwork associated with sending students to detention. Using your knowledge of state-dependent retrieval, discuss an intervention to help Janet bring up her grades in this dysfunctional class.
