NZCER student engagement conference in September
30 July 2009
Improving learning involves engaging the minds, hearts, and imaginations of young people. It means building on what they already know, believe, care about, and hope for in the future, so that they become active and committed life-long learners. This mix of behaviour, emotion, and cognition is known as student engagement.
A one-day NZCER conference (held in Wellington on 9 September and Auckland on 11 September) brings together New Zealand and international experts in the field of student engagement. Hear:
- the evidence that increased engagement leads to better educational, social, and psychological outcomes
- how to improve engagement in learning through research-informed practice
- lessons for engaging Māori students from the Te Kotahitanga project
- what NZCER’s student engagement survey 'Me and My School' has to say about student engagement in New Zealand and how it is helping schools.
