Synopsis

Keys to engaging secondary students

Research shows that all students—regardless of learning style, disability category, or language difference—learn more effectively when they are engaged in active learning. This book shows teachers how to help all students achieve positive learning outcomes. The authors provide a compilation of strategies that serve as blueprints for instructional design and directions for using them across a variety of content areas. The many benefits of active learning include:

• A more engaged and interactive classroom
• Increased self-directed learning
• Development of higher-order thinking skills such as analysis, synthesis, evaluation
• Improved reading, discussion, and writing competencies
