Chapter 7: Using Engagement Strategies
"As described in the introduction, the broad category of context refers to students' mental readiness during the teaching-learning process. Specifically, for students to be ready to learn, they must have their needs met relative to engagement, order, a sense of belonging, and a sense of high expectations. Engagement is possibly the gatekeeper to mental readiness. It is certainly a common term in education, but educators lack clear agreement of its meaning (Marzano & Pickering, 2011). The New Art and Science of Teaching addresses this issue through the lens of desired mental states and processes.
The desired mental states and processes for
strategies related to engagement are:
Students are paying attention, energized, intrigued, and inspired."

*We will end the year reviewing the engagement strategies from this chapter.
