The Highly Engaged Classroom (1)

If students are not engaged, there is little, if any, chance that they will learn what is being addressed in class.

A basic premise of The Highly Engaged Classroom is that student engagement happens as a result of a teacher's careful planning and execution of specific strategies.

In other words, student engagement is not serendipitous.

This book was designed as a self-study text that provides an in-depth understanding of how to generate high levels of attention and engagement.

Engagement is obviously a central aspect of effective teaching.

Using the suggestions presented in this book, every teacher can create a classroom environment in which engagement is the norm instead of the exception.
