Engagement and Learning – An Exploration

Engagement of students is a vital process of growth and success for students. Without engagement, there is no scope of deep learning to take place, effective teaching to happen, an expectation of a meaningful outcome, have real attainment or have quality progress. We at Heritage, among the top 10 schools in Dehradun, are a firm believer of quality education hence have laid out why we think engagement is an essential component of the learning process.

- Responsiveness

The engagement in the process of learning is the ‘noticing’ phase. It recognizes and deals with the levels of understanding of the learner, his/her awareness or recognition of the activity which determines the degree of responsiveness.

- Curiosity

The process involving further exploration or retreat by the learners lies in determining curiosity generated in them. Try questioning yourself with something like “do you feel the desire of a learner to explore further?” and how does the learner display his/her curiosity i.e. by raising questions.

- Discovery

This revolves around if the learner demonstrates discovery skills within an activity or the process of learning. To incur if there is an element of realization or surprise within the learner’s application and interpretation process.

- Persistence

The learner must demonstrate a continued effort within the occurrence of the activity. It usually involves activities that include overcoming of difficulties or conditions that usually make the learners disengage from learning.

- Initiation

This involves whether the learner is able to express his/her initiation to take up something new. If the learners are keen on expressing their urge to try something new he/she has developed an interest in the key area and thus initiates to grow and learn further.
