In a recent Campus Technology article, Lucas Long (University of West Florida) describes how instructors can enhance student engagement in the classroom. Long writes that many students struggle to focus with traditional teaching methods. The author suggests boosting student engagement through strategies such as bringing real-life scenarios into the classroom, using online learning platforms to insert questions into slides or check understanding, and turning exam reviews into Jeopardy-style games to build confidence and camaraderie. Long explains that these techniques not only increase knowledge retention, but also help students develop practical skills for everyday use.
