“The practice of tracking learning engagement to support retention, wellbeing, and success is nowhere near reaching its potential to deepen our understanding of what learning processes look like in real time. This needs to change.”

Love this. “Curiosity cannot be done in a rush, it needs time and space. It need formal and informal spaces, routine and opportunistic, spaces that are safe and built on trust. Spaces of genuine connection.” 👌

Love this, lots of really useful insight and advice here for those considering student engagement. Including my personal number one, employ students within your team and give them real responsibility.@MackMarshall15 cites this as “the least you could do”, I wholeheartedly agree.
