1) Erica McDermott, Northside, Lead Teacher
2) 8-10 - I teach students in our HACK Lab. The purpose of this lab is to engage students in hands on activities that focus on the STEAM areas. Because of the hands on nature of the activities, even the most disengaged learners are active participants in the activities I share with the students.
3) I think that there are so many reasons why students are disengaged. Here's my list:
- the activity isn't interactive
- they don't see value in the learning
- social-emotional stressors
- they may already truly "know" the content (this would be our super high achievers)
- they don't feel connected to their teacher or class
