Assignment 2: Student Engagement Strategies

For this assignment, focus on the group of students in your program of study.

You have been asked by your principal to develop a student engagement strategies presentation for use in a professional development workshop for first-year teachers.

Choose eight strategies you believe are critical for engaging students in the learning process. Five of the eight strategies must be from "The Structural Approach to Cooperative Learning."

Create a 10-15 slide presentation that includes the following:

Title and references slides

Explanation of each strategy in your own words

Classroom arrangements that are best for each engagement strategy

Slide notes explaining how you would implement each strategy in your future classroom.

Your "Student Engagement Strategies" will be part of your Personal Classroom Management Plan (Benchmark Assignment).

The instructor will provide feedback, which you will then use as the basis for revising the procedures. The revised section will then become part of the complete Personal Classroom Management Plan (Benchmark Assignment), which is due in Topic 8.

While APA format is not required for the body of this assignment, solid academic writing is expected and in-text citations and references should be presented using APA documentation guidelines.
