In response to Eric Siegel's question on keeping high school students
interested during tours, we feel that it is next to impossible to do
such a thing.  They seem to be more interested in each other than they
are on tours.
 
One experience which I have had with 8th graders is that during the tour
students would switch name tags with each other.  A male who was once
"Bobby" would be "Cindy."  Before it got too much out of hand, I told
everyone to switch name tags with someone else.  Since I was also
wearing a nametag I also switched.  Whoever had my name tag would have
to interpret the next museum display for the others.  It helped
for the students to pay better attention to what was going one.
 
Any other older children horror stories out there?
