ОглавлениеPart Two Tips and Strategies
THE 50 TIPS and strategies that follow build upon the conceptual framework of student engagement we shared in Part One. This framework proposes that student engagement functions as a double helix in which active learning and motivation work together synergistically, building in intensity, and creating a fluid and dynamic phenomenon that is greater than the sum of their individual effects. Engagement does not occur if one of the two elements is missing: if students are motivated but not learning, or if they are learning but doing so reluctantly, they are not engaged. Experienced on a continuum from barely to deeply engaged, students become more engaged as motivation and active learning build. Certain conditions promote synergy because they integrate elements of both. For example, students become more engaged when they feel that they are valued members of a learning community; when they are working at their optimal level of challenge—neither bored nor overwhelmed—and when they are learning holistically. The Tips and Strategies we share in this part come primarily from the literature on teaching and learning and are organized into categories corresponding to our conceptual framework.
