You will explore classroom strategies that are research-based and teacher-tested. You will leave this workshop fully prepared to implement strategies such as collaboration, participation techniques, high-level questioning, and inquiry-based instruction in your classes!

Student engagement in the classroom is more than simply grabbing and keeping their attention during class. Research supports a direct correlation between increased student engagement and increased student achievement. When our students are engaged in instruction, they are invested in the content, the practice, and the learning outcome. Engaging students provides students with an active role in the learning process.
The passive model of instruction centered around lecture and silence not taking dismisses the creativity, curiosity, and passion of our students. Teachers can work collaboratively with students in the classroom. When our students take an active role in their learning, they take ownership of their learning. Our students deserve instruction that is student-centered and provides opportunities for exploration of their passions and interests.

Meet Your Instructor
Emma has helped teachers throughout the country create high-impact lessons that include meaning and interaction. Being a teacher herself, she practices this on a weekly basis with her own students.
She understands how hard it can be for teachers to learn how to incorporate engagement in today's challenging world of teaching, but she also knows how to simplify it for you.
Dr. Gibbs did a great job of giving us real-life strategies to increase student engagement. It was nice to hear from someone who is actually in the classroom.
