Listen "Student Engagement"
Episode Synopsis
Student engagement refers to the degree of attention, curiosity, interest, and investment students show toward learning. In the health sciences, engagement is a key contributor to meaningful learning, clinical preparedness, and professional identity formation. Research shows that when learners are engaged, they are more likely to persist in rigorous programs, develop clinical reasoning skills, and participate actively in collaborative and interprofessional learning environments. Instructors play a crucial role in cultivating engagement. Through intentional strategies that foster psychological safety, relevance, and interactivity, educators can promote environments that support active learning and deeper connections with course material and clinical practice.
