you can't assume engagement |
Certainly as a teacher I have a number of external motivating factors, like my desire to stay employed. I am motivated by my goal of helping students become better writers, but I have to admit I really enjoy being inspired and learning alongside my students.
For curriculum design this means I work in broad goals and change the "how" of reaching my goal sometime even between sections of the same prep on the same day. I keep myself constantly working with new ideas about which tools I will ask the students to use to meet the learning objectives.
Engagement can depend on environment |
I keep myself in the game by learning new tools and developing new challenges, how do you do it? Drop a note in the comments.
