3 ways to make classrooms more interactive


To connect with today’s interactive learner, look to these innovative strategies

Key points:

  • Educators know that interactive instructional approaches are more likely to engage students, but they must integrate technology in meaningful ways
  • Gamifying lessons can help students focus while increasing engagement
  • Turn lectures into back-and-forth conversations between teachers and students
  • Consider peer instruction

So how can educators use technology in a more meaningful way? Following are three methods educators are successfully using to connect with a new generation of students in the classroom.
