Listen "Engaging Children with Ellin Oliver Keene and Tom Newkirk"
Episode Synopsis
Can you think back to when you were last fully engaged in something? So consumed that you lost all track of time and your surroundings? As Ellin Keene writes, “when engaged, we enter into a state of wideawakeness that is almost blissful.” She says, this feeling is intoxicating. How can our students find this deep engagement on their own? In her newest book, Engaging Children, Ellin Keene explores that very idea. She examines the conditions that lead to engagement and how we can promote student-driven engagement.In today’s conversation, Ellin Keene is interviewed by author Tom Newkirk, who serves as editor on Engaging Children.
