Which would be correct?

I believe this type of teaching will greatly increase my and many others attentiveness and enjoyment in the class.

I believe this type of teaching will greatly increase myself and many others attentiveness and enjoyment in the class.

I believe this type of teaching will greatly increase mine and many others attentiveness and enjoyment in the class.

I understand that if I was only using me, then it would be "my". However, when I add the "and many others", I'm not sure whether you keep the my or change it to something else.

Also, would the "others" be changed in this sentence or is it good?


Thank you very much!
