Are You Really Engaging Your Students? Or just Entertaining them?

Are You Really Engaging Your Students? Or just Entertaining them? | Create, Innovate & Evaluate in Higher Education | Scoop.it

The problem I have with this is that it seems to me that many people confused the word “engagement” for “entertainment”. If kids are having fun then they must be engaged right? And what concerns me more is the people who have taken the message about “increasing engagement” and translated that into a hidden mandate to “increase test scores”.
