Cooperative learning involves delivering instruction through small groups and encouraging students to work together as they explore new topics and concepts.

The best part of cooperative learning is that it can be as formal or informal as you need and it works across different subjects and grade levels!

Cooperative learning prioritizes:

Positive interdependence -- Students learn that each group member’s efforts are important for success

Promotive Interaction -- Students offer encouragement and feedback to other group members

Accountability -- Every student accepts responsibility for fulfilling their role

Soft Skills Instruction -- Students develop interpersonal skills that help them work together effectively

Group Processing -- Students work together to determine how they’ll meet their goals

John Hattie developed a way of synthesizing various influences in different meta-analyses according to their effect size (Cohen's d). In his ground-breaking study "Visible Learning" he ranked 138 influences that are related to learning outcomes from very positive effects to very negative effects. Hattie found that the average effect size of all the interventions he studied was 0.40. Therefore he decided to judge the success of influences relative to this 'hinge point', in order to find an answer to the question "What works best in education?"
Originally, Hattie studied six areas that contribute to learning: the student, the home, the school, the curricula, the teacher, and teaching and learning approaches. (The updated list also includes the classroom.) But Hattie did not only provide a list of the relative effects of different influences on student achievement. He also tells the story underlying the data. He found that the key to making a difference was making teaching and learning visible. He further explained this story in his book " Visible learning for teachers ".

John Hattie updated his list of 138 effects to 150 effects in Visible Learning for Teachers (2011), and more recently to a list of 195 effects in The Applicability of Visible Learning to Higher Education (2015). His research is now based on nearly 1200 meta-analyses - up from the 800 when Visible Learning came out in 2009. According to Hattie the story underlying the data has hardly changed over time even though some effect sizes were updated and we have some new entries at the top, at the middle, and at the end of the list.

Below you can find an updated version of our first, second and third visualization of effect sizes related to student achievement.

As a new teacher, I had no idea how to engage students in learning. That's not to say my class was a bore, but there were definitely days I knew flopped...majorly. Unfortunately, there's no magic list for captivating students in a lesson, but experience is one of the best tools I have to answer the question of how to engage students in the classroom. Developing a bank of lesson plans and approaches you can count on to increase engagement takes time.

There are few things I enjoy less than bored students. That's why I've dedicated a lot of time and effort to trying new instructional strategies in the middle and high school classroom. If you've been scouring the web for ways to get and keep students engaged, hopefully you'll enjoy this these active learning strategies.

Before diving into the strategies, I want to emphasize several important points.

It's hard to tell when students are truly engaged. I find that when I ask them for feedback on a lesson, they usually evaluate their interest level higher than I would have guessed. So, if students aren't on the edge of their seats enthralled in the learning, it may just be because they are teenagers dealing with a crazy array of emotions and insecurities. Plus, engagement is not always visible externally.

Engagement is not a quick fix. It starts with building relationships with students and getting to know them as learners. Students will be more engaged in a room where they know the teacher cares about them. We have to constantly check the thermostat in the room to see what is working.

Engagement shouldn't come at the expense of learning. Some activities are engaging and fun, but the thinking required is very basic, or the tasks may not align to standards.

Engagement is not the same as "fun" or even "entertaining." Engagement means students see the value of the learning and are mentally engaging with the information, actively thinking, forming meaningful associations. Their thinking is challenged.

The list of instructional strategies we could try could really fill up a book (or more). Over time, I've collected a list of reliable and engaging strategies to use with middle and high school students. Let's take a look.

1. MODEL ENGAGEMENT

It didn't take me too long into my first year of teaching before I realized the importance of modeling engagement. Teaching the same lesson several times a day isn't one of the perks of being a teacher, but the less enthusiastic I am about a lesson, the less engaged students tend to be. And, the reverse is true as well.

Wanting to engage students in independent reading? Show them how you are enjoying a book. Share your thoughts. Read some of it to them. Read when they can see you doing it.

Trying to engage reluctant writers? Model your struggles. Show them how to write a bad hook just to get something down on paper and then revise it. Smile the whole time! Ask thoughtful questions. For instance, I'm not loving this rough draft of a hook, but I'm so glad I at least have something on paper. I'd love your help! Who would like to help me make this better? What do you all suggest?

2. USE MUSIC

When we play music in the classroom, the energy changes. Whether we are using songs for intentional brain breaks (which are an engagement strategy as well!), as a mentor text for figurative language or grammar, or as a bell ringer, music brings life to the classroom. Here's a free analytical music activity you can use with poetry.

3. USE ART

Use art in ELA to pique students' interest. For example, I love encouraging students to think critically by drawing vocabulary associations or creating one pagers or sketch notes. They can analyze and evaluate graphic design elements by looking at author's craft in picture books or by to capture reflections. Use photographs as inspiration for writing or project images related to a text before reading. Then, have students make predictions or build background knowledge.

4. GIVE OWNERSHIP

If we really want to engage students in learning, we need to give them ownership: voice and choice. Involve them in making decisions about what happens in the classroom and about their learning. Ask for their feedback about lessons and units. Have them evaluate their work and progress. And, let students ch oose what they want to read as often as possible. Create and display anchor charts that showcase their ideas. With writing, give feedback that honors students' internal dialogue.

5. MAKE IT RELEVANT

Students are more engaged in learning when lessons are relevant to real-world application. Tie literature to essential questions that help students understand life. Choose books in which they can see themselves or their culture present. Try passion projects or genius hours. Teach real-world writing skills like email etiquette and journaling. And, of course, bring in elements of pop culture whenever appropriate. I love using short films, music, commercials, and more to teach literary analysis.
6. INCORPORATE MOVEMENT
Any time we can incorporate movement in our classrooms, engagement tends to increase. Whether we are having students participate in a gallery walk, using manipulatives to unders tand language, or sorting information to categorize it, when students are standing and moving around, they are more likely to be engaged. Learning stations are one of my favorite ways to incorporate movement because students get to practice many skills related to the learning objectives...all from different learning perspectives.

7. PLAY GAMES

Games are crowd pleasers. This year, I asked my students... If you could take the skills I am asking you to learn and transform this lesson to make it exactly how you want to learn, what approach would you take? The answer? Resoundingly, games. They want to play games. Games are not ideal for every circumstance, but if students can play a game to practice a skill or strategy, they tend to be smiling, laughing, and collaborating more than with other approaches.

8. READ ALOUD

Students are never too old to be read to. I just attended a conference in which the presenter used several picture books as interactive read alouds with an adult audience, and everyone was enthralled. Picture books truly have to age cap. Whether you're reading the first chapter of a book, the entire thing, a short story, or a picture books, you'll notice students are more engaged.

9. CREATE VISUALS

Visual elements captivate students. Graphic organizers provide them with naturally differentiated entry points for discussion. Plus, the design of many graphic organizers elevates thinking more than a traditional worksheet. Anchor charts are effective because students can help create them, and they anchor learning so that students can refer back to them long after the lesson is over. EL and all students benefit from word walls, especially when they are interactive.

10. STOP AND JOT

Sometimes we are so busy disseminating information that we don't stop often enough to let students think. And, thinking is critical for engagement! Try incorporating brain dumps, or stop and jots, as a way for students to write down what they remember as you move from one topic to another or between parts of the lesson. This type of activity is also helpful with removing "dead time" in the classroom, which diminishes engagement.

11. DISCUSSION WARM-UPS

Ever wonder how to engage students in class discussions? Try think, pair, square, which is a variation of think-pair-share. In think, pair, square, the teacher poses a question. (Students can pose questions also, determining on the purpose and goal).

Then, students do a brain dump on paper, writing down everything they think in response to that question. Following a short period of reflection, they turn to a partner and share those ideas. After, the partners pair up with another set of partners so that the discussion groups are somewhat larger.

You'll notice that as students move from sharing with just one other person to four, the energy level in the room rises. Students also typically are more likely to participate in the whole-class discussion that follows.

12. CHUNK LESSONS

Lessons are more engaging when intentional chunking is built in. We can do this by breaking down course content and skills into smaller chunks that are more easy for students to digest as well as chunking the class period strategically to increase mastery of content.

When done effectively, students comprehend the content better, learn more of it, and remember it longer. Content chunking gives students time to really dig into a skill, idea, or concept long enough that they can appreciate it, reflect on it, and connect with it at a deeper level. Here are some specific chunking ideas for reading, writing, and other ELA topics.

13. REVAMP NOTE-TAKING

There are so many different ways students can take notes, but when we introduce new note-taking strategies that make students think and that they can use as a study strategy, engagement increases. One approach I have used this year is sketch noting. You can find a free lesson for introducing this strategy to students in my resource library (exclusive for subscribers).

Another is retrieve taking. With this strategy, students actually don't take notes. They listen. Then, when you are done talking or the video is done playing, you pause and ask students to brain dump. Have them write down everything they remember. Obviously, you can insert these intentionally retrieval opportunities regularly during direct instruction to chunk the note taking.

14. PROVOKE CURIOSITY

When talking about how to engage students in learning, curiosity has to be part of the conversation. If students aren't interested in what they are learning, it's hard to engage them. Before reading, try projecting images and/or words that relate to the text. Have them begin making some predictions about the text. The images can serve to build background knowledge and prepare students to read as well.

Writing? Hold a debate before writing an argumentative essay. Analyze aspects of pop culture before writing a literary analysis piece. For informative writing, pique students' interest by having them select a topic based off of questions they have about a fiction text (ex. - Why did Henry VIII have six wives? or What technology has already been invented that is similar to what is described in the book?).

This whole post is full of a variety of anticipatory sets, or lesson hooks, that can help to engage students in learning.

15. ACTIVATE THE BRAIN

In order to engage students in learning, they need to experience the excitement of retaining new information. When learning is tangible, or measurable, students tend to be more motivated. Part of my teaching philosophy involves incorporating brain-based learning approaches whenever possible. We know students learn better when they are making meaningful associations, collaborating with others, and doing the work.

While I incorporate elements of brain-based learning in all aspects of ELA, one of the areas I have the most fun with it is in vocabulary. Here are five brain-based vocabulary activities, and you'll find even more in this resource, which you can use with any word list.

16. USE COLOR

Color brightens moods, lessons, and learning. There's something about color that intrigues us and helps us to remember what we learn. Students can color-code elements of a paragaraph when writing. Color can also help students understand book diet and book fit. Try color coding mood and tone or grammatical elements so that students can visually see how the elements work together. This list provides details for these ideas and more.

17. ADD TECH

Take any lesson and "engage-ify"it by adding meaningful tech. For example, to have students show their thinking about characters, plot, and conflict, ask them to use the free app called Texting Story to create a short video conversation. To reflect on the writing process and what students learn as they move through each phase, have them document their experience each day using Apple Clips. Students can conduct research and visually display what they learn by creating an infographic on Canva. Try using Notability to create a mindmap or other visual notes to synthesize learning. Or, ask students to insert a GIF into a shared Google Slide document to represent their current feeling about the topic of discussion.

18. MAKE IT COLLABORATIVE

When we picture the gradual release of learning, we sometimes skip over collaboration. It takes time! But, the social nature of learning is so important for students. To maximize engagement, whenever possible, ask students to work together to share ideas about what they are reading, to revise their writing, to respond to one another in verbal and silent discussions, and to partake in research projects.

19. TRY A PODCAST

Podcasts require a different type of listening. Students can build their listening comprehension while learning auditorily from an informational text. Podcasts are especially engaging when the topic is intriguing or relevant to students. Here is a list of podcasts for students from Common Sense media, and this is a high-interest podcast lesson I recommend for high school students.

20. CHALLENGE STUDENTS

No one likes to be bored. Students appreciate the type of challenge that makes them think but doesn't frustrate them. Ask questions that challenge students' thinking in developmentally appropriate ways. Encourage them to participate in some metacognition, but always avoid busy work.

True student engagement is not the same as participation. With participation, students may be doing what we ask them to. They may be raising their hands at the appropriate times, but that doesn't mean they are mentally an emotionally engaging or connecting with the lesson.

So, in order to answer the question of how to engage students in the learning process, we need to look beyond all the strategies and start thinking about how we can intentionally build active learning into our classrooms. Engagement increases students' attention, sharpens their focus, motivates them to think at a higher level, and promotes meaningful learning.
Meaningful learning boils down to knowing our students well enough to create lessons they find relevant.
It's really more about purposeful lesson design than it is randomly selecting a strategy from a list. Ultimately, I notice maximum engagement when I have just enough structure in my room for it to feel safe, but also just enough variety in active learning activities to keep students on their toes.

Student engagement is my number one goal in the classroom. None of the academic goals can be achieved without student engagement. It is essential! My biggest advice to you is to decrease teacher talk and the time students spend in their desks.

I want to share some more specific ways that I keep my students engaged in our lessons.

I LOVE this quote by Eric Jensen: "If you don't have time to play music when you teach then you talk too much." TRUTH! There is so much research out there about how music lowers anxiety and nerves and releases endorphins that make you happy. Music wakes you up and makes your body move!

Use music to increase student engagement. Get them ready to learn by playing fun music as they walk in the room and unpack. Play soothing music while they write. After a test, play some upbeat music to reenergize them. Play fun music while they are packing up and cleaning the classroom. Use music as a reward. If my kids get compliments in the hall, they get a song and free dance during snack break. So easy and so fun.

The simple truth is that when you are happy, you are more engaged. Music makes us happy!

I bought this old iPod from a used bookstore. It was very inexpensive. Perhaps, you can load the music on to your phone? I bought a $20 speaker from Wal-Mart. It works perfectly!

When students have some control over their learning, they become much more engaged in the classroom activities. Find ways to allow for student choice each day!

Some ideas include:

Picking their own seat

Choosing their own partner or group to work with

Picking a game from a basket of games that all pertain to the skill they need to practice

Choosing their own book for read to self time

Deciding on the order they will complete their centers

A lot of teachers use pair share from time to time. I use pair share about 5-10 times during every mini lesson. I am not exagerating! I actually use the Whole Brain Teaching Teach-Okay for my pair shares. I tell them something and then they teach it right back to their accountability partner. Students are hearing what I say and then repeating it to a partner. It increases memorization. I also find that students are more tuned in and engaged during my lesson because they know they are going to have to teach regularly. Giving students lots of opportunities to talk helps to decrease the chatter during quiet work times too. I highly recommend that you watch this video to see how this works in a classroom.

I seriously do this constantly! Teach your partner the directions that I just gave you. Teach your partner how you solved this problem. Teach your partner how you know that you are correct. Teach your partner what a character trait is and give examples.

And I love to use silly voices when I say "teach." Then they students have to say 'okay," in the same voice and they love it!

Students love to be given permission to talk and/or be silly! If you tell them to honk their nose every time say you say a word with a prefix- those students will listen harder than ever before! And research of the brain has shown the significant impact that laughing can have on memory and retention! I know that it sounds noisy. But kids were not meant to just sit quietly all day. Consider being bold and allowing the noise from time to time. But, if you have a class that cannot handle it- use a quiet gesture like patting their head and rubbing their bellies.

When we are correcting math facts, my students are encouraged to do an air fist pump and say "yes," whenever they get the fact correct. It is simple and totally effective. My students WANT to do math facts!

What if you had a daily vocabulary word. Anytime the teacher says the word- students call back the agreed upon synonym. Students will enjoy the daily change of callback and be practicing their vocabulary words for the week! Do you really want to increase the engagement? Have a specified type of voice students will use to callback. Such as high pitched, low pitched, sing song, whisper, etc. They will be sitting on the edge of their seat waiting for you to say the word! That is complete engagement!

The important think is that you never give instruction while the class is being silly or not listening. So always have an agreed upon way that you will get student's attention. It can be the vocabulary callback or another callback or gesture, as long as everyone knows. So practice your attention getter before adding too much silliness to it.

There are times when I notice that my kids have been sitting for too long or are getting antsy. That is when it is time to get them up stretching, dancing and moving. Go Noodle is a free website that has tons of video brain breaks for kids.

They are so fun for the kids. (But I must fess up- I do them too. Great exercise and catchy tunes!) Our favorites include: Pop See Ko, Go Bananas and Roller Coaster. After we do one of these guided dances- then we do one of the Go Noodle stretching activities to calm the kids down.

The kids are happy and their blood is moving again. They are ready to think and be engaged in your lesson! (Plus- they think you are the coolest teacher EVER!)

Students are almost always more active and engaged when they are being taught in small groups. They are more willing to offer responses, since they are not having to speak in front of a large group. Students are more likely to follow along and not get lost when the teacher is right there guiding and leading. It is harder to get distracted.

Also, teaching in small groups means that the students will need centers to work on while other groups are meeting with the teacher. This gives students the opportunity to get up and move, work with a partner, play games and/or use manipulatives. It is all so much more engaging than a worksheet done at their desk!

Click on the picture below to read more about how I manage my math groups and center time. I use the same sort of schedule for my reading groups!

Worksheets are NOT engaging! I very rarely ever use one in my classroom. Students still need to practice key concepts that I am teaching in my mini lessons. I use interactive notebooks to give kids the opportunity to practice skills while keeping engagement high. They get to cut, glue and fold. Sometimes they are rolling dice or using crayons. They are moving and creating.

My students take pride in their interactive notebooks and pay close attention to detail while they work. They actually look forward to notebook activities. There is no doubt that my students are engaged!

You can shop for interactive notebooks in my store by clicking HERE. Or download some free notebook activities to get started by clicking on the picture below!

You can read more about how I use interactive notebook in my classroom by clicking on the pictures below.

I hope you are able to take some of these ideas and implement them in your classroom to get your students more engaged!

When I work with schools that have already adopted the UDL framework, they immediately recognize how blended learning can help teachers to implement many of the principles of UDL more effectively.
