Session Overview

Are some of your students disengaged and disinterested in learning? This session with Kay Schlesinger presents an array of practical strategies to trial in the process of re-engagement and reigniting the spark! 

This session aims to model and share proven approaches to engage learners whose previous default position has been to disengage from their learning communities. 

It explores strategies to transform disengaged learners into active participants within their learning communities.

By addressing the root causes of disengagement, participants will learn practical techniques to foster a fresh start for students and create an inclusive, engaging environment.

 Educators will gain insights into tailoring activities to suit diverse concentration spans, building confidence through positive reinforcement, and leveraging group skills and technology to promote collaboration.
