Description
Students who actively participate in lessons improve both behavior and academic performance.
Learn specific instructional procedures and routines to:
- Increase engagement
- Increase on-task behavior
- Increase accountability
- Promote desired behaviors
- Reduce inappropriate behaviors
- Keep the class briskly moving along
- Active Participation DVDs can be used both to introduce teaching staff to active engagement strategies and to serve periodically as a systematic review of engagement strategies for staff who are familiar with the concepts, but need a quick refresher.
Show the DVD on a large screen for whole-staff inservice or on a single computer for individual or small-group study sessions. Dr. Archer’s presentations are equally as effective!
Please note that this DVD set is for elementary grades K-5. There is another version that is tailored to secondary-level instruction.
