Overview
Authentic student engagement is not a matter of luck or innate charisma. Every teacher can do it, but they need the right approach.
In Designing Units for Maximum Engagement, experienced educator Lauren Porosoff clarifies the fundamentals of engagement pedagogy and presents a systematic approach to unit design that will increase students' voluntary participation in lessons and foster their development as active learners.
It's not just about adding various engagement strategies to each lesson. Porosoff's approach includes identifying the unit's learning goal—to explore an essential question, develop a skill, or create a product—and choosing the instructional strategies most likely to help students connect to that goal in a meaningful way.
When students engage, they do more than pay attention. They wonder, imagine, discuss, listen, and create. They make the choice to connect with content, their work, and one another. This guide highlights how to put together the various elements of instruction so that every unit will be an engaging one.
