Student engagement is a crucial factor in academic success and fostering a love for lifelong learning. Engagement inspires students to practice and acquire the skills they need to succeed in and outside of the classroom. Research has demonstrated that engaged students tend to achieve higher academic performance, exhibit better retention rates, and cultivate strong communication skills. However, without adequate support and resources, students may become disinterested, or frustrated along the way. Through the implementation of interactive and hands-on activities and strategies, educators can create dynamic and meaningful learning experiences that ignite curiosity, promote self-discovery, and ultimately enhance academic achievement and success.
