In addition, teachers are also required to develop the 21st century learning skills for innovation (critical thinking, collaboration, communication and creativity). In this workshop, some practical ways in which technology can be used for active learning in the classroom will be introduced. There will be opportunities for hands-on exploration of a variety of applications and resources. These can be used for developing learning and innovation skills among learners in the 21st century classroom.

- 12. Engaging Learners Salient academic & non- academic aspects of the student experience” : ■ active and collaborative learning ■ participation in challenging academic activities ■ formative communication with academic staff ■ involvement in enriching educational experiences ■ feeling legitimated and supported by university learning communities. Coates (2007) https://www.heacademy.ac.uk/system/files/studentengagementliteraturereview_1.pdf “Students’ involvement with activities and conditions likely to generate high-quality learning” • academic challenge • active learning • student and staff interactions • enriching educational experiences • supportive learning environment • work-integrated learning Australasian Survey of Student Engagement (AUSSE)
- 13. Engaging Learners Students who are engaged exhibit three characteristics: (1) they are attracted to their work (2) they persist in their work despite challenges and obstacles, and (3) they take visible delight in accomplishing their work. (Skelchy, 1994) ■ Student engagement is concerned with the interaction between the time, effort and other relevant resources invested by both students and their institutions intended to optimise the student experience and enhance the learning outcomes and development of students and the performance, and reputation of the institution (Trowler, 2010) https://www.heacademy.ac.uk/system/files/studentengagementliteraturereview_1.pdf
- 14. Engaging Learners Types of engagement: ■ Behavioural engagement : Attendance and involvement, absence of disruptive or negative behaviour. ■ Emotional engagement: Interest, enjoyment, or a sense of belonging. ■ Cognitive engagement: Cognitively engaged students would be invested in their learning, seek to go beyond the requirements, and relish challenge. Low High
- 15. Engaging Learners Learner engagement : ■ Degree of attention, curiosity, interest, optimism, and passion that is shown when learning or being taught ■ Level of motivation they have to learn and progress in their education. ■ Learning improves when students are inquisitive, interested, or inspired, ■ Learning tends to suffer when students are bored, dispassionate, disaffected, or otherwise “disengaged.”
- 16. Active learning ■ Students’ efforts to actively construct their knowledge (AUSSE) ■ Students are engaged in more activities than just listening. They are involved in dialog, debate, writing, and problem solving, as well as higher-order thinking. To be effective in the 21st century, citizens and workers must be able to create, evaluate, and effectively utilize information, media, and technology
- 17. Active learning ■ Thus active learning is commonly defined as activities that students do to construct knowledge and understanding. ■ The activities vary but require students to do higher order thinking. ■ Although not always explicitly noted, metacognition—students’ thinking about their own learning—is an important element, providing the link between activity and learning
- 18. Active learning ■ Active learning is generally defined as any instructional method that engages students in the learning process. ■ In short, active learning requires students to do meaningful learning activities and think about what they are doing
