Technology
Tip
Classroom
Engagement
Looking
for ways to increase classroom engagement? Believe it or not,
students get very excited about the possibility of using technology
in the classroom. If you are fortunate enough to have an interactive board like me then use it to get your students' attention. This technology can aid in our
never-ending endeavor of keeping our students engaged.
When you notice your students are off
task, or not fully engaged with the lesson you can simply hold up
your interwrite pen and tell your students that you are looking for
someone to come up and help you. I will then restate my expectations
(someone who is sitting tall with their eyes on me). This serves as a
quick reminder about your expectations without actually stopping your
lesson. I’ve included a very short list of things you can have your
students come up and do during the lesson.
The following is a quick list
- Allow a student to come up and show how they solved a math problem
- Allow a student to display their work under the document camera
- Allow a student to advance the powerpoint slide
- Allow a student to point to words on the board as the class reads
