ReplyDeleteActive engagement is when a person (in this case a scholar) is engaging in what's taking place both by being prompted and of their own volition. Those who are actively engaged want to dig into the activity presented before them and are willing to share about what they're learning to those around them. An actively engaged scholar will be willing to take risks to gain knowledge of something, even if they aren't always correct the first time. Compliant engagement has a lot of similarities to this, but the two types of engagement are not synonymous. Someone who is compliantly engaged will also do work without a lot of prompting, and can complete things on their own, however, they aren't going to be as willing to take those risks or initiate with others on what they are learning or experiencing.
I love the idea of the engagement wheel and am definitely going to print it out to keep in mind as I lesson plan. There are so many good ideas and reminders of what kinds of things can really make a difference in a scholar's mind for something to stick. Especially during this time of year, I am desperate for any ways to keep the scholars engaged after they've been in school for several months and have been stuck inside due to colder weather. Mixing it up with some of this ideas should definitely help keep my classroom a positive learning environment.

ReplyDeleteCompliant engagement is when a student complete the assignment with some prompting but does not actively look for new way of thinking. they will also complete work with no expectation on personal reverence. These student will also decided not to ask for help as it is not worth the effort.
Active students are similar to those listed above but they take an active part in their education. While they will follow directions with minimal prompting but they will pursue alternative approach to personal experience. These student are constantly question to better understand the material and world. These students are also taking risks and exploring new points of views.
For the engagement wheel, I will try this for a few year to see if I like the concept and if it would work well with me. If it was helping the student i would continue but if it was not I would ty and use the choice board option and see if that would work for the student, event if it give me more work. The choice board would allow they student to work together.
