Abstract
Along with clarity and organization, presenting material in an interesting and engaging way is another main dimension of effective teaching61. How does an interesting/engaging presentation of the material contribute to student learning? An interesting presentation helps students concentrate on the material and keeps them alert and attentive. On the other hand, when the presentation is dull, students stop listening. They daydream, fall asleep, or become engaged in activities other than learning.
