Learning happens best in a variety of ways:
- When students are given time/space to internalize information individually
- When students connect emotionally to information through social interactions, experiences, and experiments.
- When the environment is safe, both physically and emotionally.
- When content is engaging
- When they are able to ask questions and participate in their learning
- Through discovery and student involvement
- Through meaningfully planned lessons that may involve direct instruction, inquiry, discussion, etc....
- When instruction is individually catered to each student, as can be done with technology or other methods of differentiation.
