Let's face it...everyone in a school setting has a short attention span. Students and teachers alike are usually looking at screens or thinking about looking at screens. While that is not entirely bad, getting students to focus on the task at hand is a challenge. In this session, we will discuss all of the aspects of student/teacher engagement: from creative and practical ways to engage today's students (and teachers) in daily lessons, activities, and assessments to successfully breaking the trend of students spending more time staring into outer space than being "present" in the classroom.
