Engaging Instruction Artifacts

E​‌‍‍‍‌‍‍‌‍‌‌‍‍‍‌‍‌‌‌‍​ngaging instruction is one of your strongest tools in the classroom (along with caring relationships). If your students are engaged, they are less likely to participate in off-task behaviors that could distract them or others. We have read about the importance of engaging instruction in Himmele and Himmele (2017) and talked about it in class. Now it’s time for you to put this all together and consider how it applies to your future classroom. Begin by describing the importance of engaging instruction and how it supports both learning (Himmele & Himmele, 2017) and classroom management (Milner et al., 2019). Then demonstrate how you will apply this research. Create and include three artifacts that you intend to use to foster student engagement in your classroom. These artifacts must be included in their entirety and could be instructions and a rubric for a cooperative learning activity, a writing prompt, or other student-centered activities. Each activity should either be annotated or include a paragraph of explanation regarding how it connects to the research on student engagement. Please write in first person for all assignments for this course—I am most interested in what you plan to do in your future classroom. After completing this assignment, you will be able to: - Iden​‌‍‍‍‌‍‍‌‍‌‌‍‍‍‌‍‌‌‌‍​tify the importance of engaging instruction. - Reflect on how to support student engagement in the classroom.
