An Engaging look at content

Absent or Inattentive Students?

"Lecture attendance ranged from 30% to 76%, with a mean of 49.2%"

Up to 80% of uni students don’t read their assigned readings.

Undervaluation of reading importance

lack of motivation

deficiency in reading skills

We need strategies to improve engagement

We begin to engage when we interact with the content

So we use Interactive Content

Interactive Content?

Interactive content is any type of content — such as quizzes, polls, interactive infographics & videos, and games — that requires and encourages users to actively engage with it rather than passively consume it.

OK. How?

We begin by understanding how and why we interact

Knowing this what can we do?

Let's look at some strategies we can use to bring greater interactivity into our subjects

Interactive Strategies

Relevance

Interactive Strategies

Relevance

Make sure the content is relevant to the learner. To properly navigate our world, our interactions need to make sense to us. If content is not framed in a relevant context it’s difficult to engage and motivate the learner.

Interactive Strategies

Pull

Interactive Strategies

Pull

Get the learner to pull content in. Most courses tend to push content out. It’s how we usually teach. We push content via learning docs, cheat sheets, videos, lectures, etc. Give them a reason to explore and consume content.

Sustainable Tourism

Adventure Tourism - Dr Robert Nash

Rob had just taken over Sustainable Tourism and found the site full of old content. Topic content was presented on very old PowerPoints with outdated articles, non-existent links, and pixelated images. Both of Rob's Sustainable Tourism, and Adventure Tourism, now use Genially to deliver content, backed up by a few formative quizzes from other online tools

How has Genially been used?

International Food and Beverage Management - Dr Carmen Cox

Carmen attended last years presentation on enhancing content and decided to change her format of using links to PowerPoints.
