Proposal for Presentation
Was there something more we could have done? In classrooms across America, we are losing students that are unable to effectively cope with the stress of the transitional nature of college while also juggling life. Meaningful engagement can increase our students’ psychological investment in learning, their willingness and desire to learn, and their resiliency. The presenters will showcase a classroom that provides a learning environment to meet the needs of students today, where the ultimate goal is not only points, but also critical thinking and sustainable change. Participants will be empowered with strategies to foster student success through active, meaningful engagement.
