Increasing Cognitive Engagement in the Online Classroom

In a traditional classroom, you have to keep students from staring out the window.

In an online classroom, you have to keep them from jumping into the pool.

Keeping online students engaged is a whole different ballgame as they’re inundated with external distractions.

The beach beckons … the mall calls … the Xbox entices.

Not only that, they don’t experience the social and “entertainment” elements of a live classroom … elements that reinforce their sense of involvement in a learning community.

So disengagement becomes a real issue.

• How do you prevent it?
• How do you keep online students from mentally “checking out,” and surrendering their energy and interest to passivity and apathy?

B. Jean Mandernach, Ph.D., of Park University, helps you create an environment where students feel motivated to invest themselves fully in the learning process.

• Methods of engaging online students efficiently and effectively.
• Empirically supported instructional strategies to increase students’ interest.
