Assignment:
Creating an environment of learning, engagement, and motivation helps students embrace learning at a deeper level. There are several strategies teachers can implement to engage students and help motivate them to learn.
Part 1: Matrix
Research five engagement strategies that can be implemented in the secondary classroom to help motivate students and create an engaging learning environment.
Complete the "Engagement Strategy Matrix" that includes:
- Title of each type of engagement strategy.
- Description of each engagement strategy. (At least one must use technology appropriate to the subject matter.)
- How the engagement strategy will be implemented within the classroom.
- An example of a developmentally appropriate learning activity that utilizes each engagement strategy.
Part 2: Rationale
In 250 to 500 words, summarize and provide a rationale as to why you chose those engagement strategies. How do these engagement strategies provide an opportunity for motivation and create an environment of learning?
Support your findings with a minimum of three scholarly resources.
