Imagine a classroom where the teacher calls upon every child randomly. Every child is alert, curious and attentive. The students are allowed to discuss and solve problems with their peers and learn from one another. Every child gets to touch, feel and use the learning material – whether a maths toolkit, a book or a science kit. The teacher stays in the classroom while the children work and gives them feedback in real-time. The children cognitively engage with the topic. There is a happy buzz of students taking ownership of their learning. This is student engagement and this is what makes the classroom a meaningful space for every learner.
