Intro

For this post we will be focusing on the concept of student engagement. Student engagement occurs when students are actively thinking about the concepts and activities on a complex level.  Complex thinking goes beyond mere participation and involves asking questions, posing theories, and using deeper cognitive levels to connect what they are doing with the content they are learning.  

This blog post will ask teachers to view videos and reflect on them in terms of student engagement.
View the uploaded videos and answer the following questions:

• How does this short video illustrate the changing voice of our students as internal stakeholders of the educational process?
• What does the video illustrate about the ways in which today's learners engage with academic material?
• How does the approach in the video promote student choice as a way to engage students in the learning process?
