TitleEducation Exchange: Student Engagement and Disengagement: Who’s Responsible and Does it Matter for Success?
CategoryEducation
OverviewIt’s always disappointing when students don’t engage, but is it entirely their fault, or should we, as educators, bear some of the responsibility? Join us on 25 November at the STEM Centre (STEM 3.1) for a lively panel discussion on enhancing engagement in today’s challenging higher education landscape. Our panel of Essex experts, each with significant experience in their respective fields, will discuss the crucial role of affective, behavioural, cognitive and social dimensions of engagement in shaping the teaching and learning experience. The discussion will focus on the complexities of student engagement and why it is crucial for building a sense of belonging and improving student outcomes. Discover practical and innovative strategies to create supportive environments that promote participation, manage student expectations, and enable transformative learning. These strategies can potentially transform the learning experience for both educators and students. This event will offer actionable insights for educators seeking to improve student engagement and foster deeper connections in the classroom.
