How to Get Students Engaged in Learning

Preparing students to be college ready is a top goal for high schools. With that comes the expectation and responsibility for teachers to teach students to memorize for assessments.  The adolescent brain is going a growth spurt where learning to make good decision is sometimes compromized. So, teaching students to be independent thinkers, good problem solvers, and communication skills is paramount. 

Teachers also create enriching environments for learning.  While there are several teaching approaches, keeping students interested in their learning is key. Once a person is interested in something, dopamine in the brain is produced, which help with attention and motivation. 

High school teachers should create an environment that encourages exploration and discovery, while also providing students with the structure they need to succeed. Knowing how to do those things may transform how you structure your classrooms.
