Engaging Students with Curriculum
How will you make sure that students are engaged with your content? These tools can help.
Collaboration
Create opportunities within instruction and practices for students to talk, share work, and engage with each other during synchronous and asynchronous learning. Collaboration is an important factor in creating and developing student agency. It is shown that students engaging in collaboration will feel more connected to one another, and to their school community.
Digital Feedback & Evidence of Student Learning
There are many ways to provide meaningful feedback, both analog and digital. It is awesome to incorporate different types and modes of feedback, including peer reviews, teacher feedback, and immediate digital response.
