Virtually every topic is interesting to someone, somewhere. I'm not particularly interested in the sex life of the South American tree fog. However, a biologist might be fascinated. (Another tree frog might be, too.) If you wait for teachers to "make" their courses interesting, you are missing the point. Interest is a matter of your attitude. It's mistake to blame poor performance on events "beyond your control". Students who believe that success is based on effort tend to do better in the long run (Noel et al, 1987).
