1/ How do we engage children in classrooms? Teachers may have the same training & materials, but their ability to engage students makes all the difference in learning outcomes. The new Engage tool sheds light on how to measure and improve this critical factor. ⭐️
9/ How can classrooms in Ghana, Peru, or Jordan benefit from more engaged students? The Engage tool provides a roadmap—grounded in evidence, built for impact. Teachers don’t need a complete overhaul, just small, powerful shifts in how they connect with students.
10/ If of interest, or if you want to find out more about the tool, reach out to [email protected] ⭐️
Check out our new report on 'What works (and how) to impact early childhood outcomes,' commissioned by a Steering Group made up of a group of funders of early childhood development. Read more here: betterpurpose.co/early-child…
Did you know the Engage tool has been used by 13 different organizations in various countries? We’d love to see that number grow and expand the evidence base on engagement in learning. If of interest, or if you want to find out more about the tool, reach out to [email protected]
NEW PAPER: A World Bank study highlights the importance of engaging students in their learning and shows that the Engage observation tool is highly effective at predicting learning outcomes.
