I have begun this online video, on Lynda.com
titled Learning How to Increase Learner Engagement under the Education and
E-learning category. Within this video, there were several quizzes along the
way towards the end of the video to ensure that I was paying attention and
fully engaged with what the video was talking about. This video focused on
Passive vs. Active learning techniques and the difference between the two for
students. It also went into detail about the ways teachers and educators can
increase engagement with the help of different strategies such as introducing
more problem-based learning, flip charts, index cards and much more. Students
learn best with an active learning environment, because they have been found to
keep the student engaged with what is being taught in their class and they
don’t have time to be distracted or not paying attention to what is being
taught. Students learn how to actively
think, learn and work with the content that is being taught. Lecturing alone is not enough to effectively
teach and keep students engaged in learning, much more needs to be done and
changed to allow students to receive the proper level of knowledge from a
lesson or lecture. Think, pair and share is the key to a successful learning
environment. There are various ways that
teachers can explore to get their students more engaged in a lesson, such as
using index cards, flip charts and other digital tolls like blogs or twitter.
The trick is to find what works best in your classroom with the students and go
from there.
