The Power of Best Practices to Increase Student Engagement

Having trouble increasing engagement in your courses? CTE courses are already interactive and hands-on. But sometimes, things can get chaotic if best practices and systems aren't in place. In this session, participants will learn how to use instructional best practices and effective classroom systems for maintaining student engagement and effectiveness. Materials will include how to implement student accountability systems, project-based assessments, warm-up activities, technology platforms, group activities, and class assignments which promote student engagement and keeps order in your classroom.

Participants will be able to leave with lesson plan resources to be able to use with their students and teachers in their department. Materials are adaptable to be used for various courses under the CTE umbrella.
