Engaging Kids Today: It’s about pedagogy not just technology. The body of literature around student engagement is vast and continues to grow. Educators have never been better informed of the complexities and interactions between pedagogy, technology, neuroscience and engagement. Yet, across the western world in particular, studies suggest that student engagement levels continue to drop. Why is this? Could one of the reasons be, that despite all the talk of an Education Revolution, most of the action centres around standardisation, assessment and accountability? In this presentation, Dan explores how, by understanding authentic engagement teachers can inspire mini-revolutions in their own schools and communities, to ensure that – not only are kids prepared for tomorrow – they are engaged today.
