Engaging Learners

Engage - Verb 1.Occupy, attract, or involve (someone's interest or attention). 2.Cause someone to become involved in (a conversation or discussion).

Why Engage Learners? Learning is not a spectator sport. Students do not learn much just sitting in classes listening to teachers, memorizing prepackaged assignments, and spitting out answers. They must talk about what they are learning, write reflectively about it, relate it to past experiences, and apply it to their daily lives. They must make what they learn part of themselves. (Chickering & Gamson, 1987)

Positive Reinforcement Entertainment Memories

Artificial Guided by Rules Goals Consequences Contest or Trial What is a Game? A game is a set of activities involving one or more players. It has goals, constraints and consequences. A game is rule-guided and artificial in some respects. Finally, a game involves some aspect of a contest or a trial of skill or ability, even if that contest is with oneself. -Dempsey
