Engagement for all learners!

Student engagement is the heart of meaningful learning. It’s when students are not just present but fully immersed, curious, and invested in their own educational journey. Engaged students actively participate, ask questions, and make connections between what they learn and the world around them. This level of involvement transforms the classroom into a dynamic space where ideas come to life and learning becomes an exciting, shared adventure. When students are truly engaged, they don’t just absorb information—they become empowered thinkers, creators, and problem-solvers, ready to take on the challenges of the future.

The scholarly explanation!

Essentially, authentic student engagement involves cognitive focus (attention) and emotional fuel (motivation, interest, curiosity), which sets the groundwork for constructive learning behaviour that leads to deep and long-lasting learning (Astleitner & Wiesner, 2004).
