This episode follows on from the previous episode where we unpacked the key insights into classroom engagement by a recent study conducted by Lego Education.

In this episode I explore the strategies that will motivate students to take ownership for their own learning, which of course has the ripple effect of better overall engagement not just for our students but for ourselves too.

Have you noticed that students have become passive recipients of knowledge? 

They sit there waiting for us to pour knowledge and information into them, and then they don't do anything with that knowledge. They're unable to transfer their learning into other areas.

One way that we can ensure that students transfer knowledge, is to better engage them.

And the way to better engage students is firstly to make sure that what we are teaching them is relevant to their lives. 

And when learning is relevant, students are better positioned to take ownership for their learning.
