Does Age Matter?

I feel like almost all of the information in this book is geared toward younger students. Do you think it would be wise to try and play these games or use some the these ideas on teenage students or adults?

Complete Success in Teaching

How do you help ALL students succeed in learning? Not all of them even want to learn so what do you do with those students who don't care that much or don't want to practice?

How do you motivate students who already have the label from school of being unintelligent or slow? They most likely are not unintelligent or slow, but people tell them that they are so they refuse to try. How do you help them?
