Kagan it's all about engagement traditional teaching engages some students but not all Kagan is revolutionary approach to teaching that actively engages every student let's look at the problems traditional teaching creates students sit in rows the rule is no talking the teacher presents new information or new skill to engage students the teacher asks the class question one student responds at time sounds familiar doesn't it so what's wrong with that the first problem is we set our students against each other when the teacher calls on Peter to answer Susie lowers her hand in disappointment but when Peter begins to falter she shoots her hand back up waves it wildly pick me teacher subset of students compete for the opportunity to shine competitive class is not brain-friendly learning environment the next problem is students spend very little time actively engaged the teacher is doing most of the talking most at the time when we finally do engage students it's one at time it's like being in long line waiting to be served big percent of the class is somewhere between mildly interested and comos many students don't want to turn they feel they can't or don't want to compete Johnny is shy Monica is lower achieving Juan is still learning English these students don't want to be singled out don't call on me they hide they opt out it's no wonder we have an achievement Gap traditional teaching engages some of the class but many students can easily slip through the cracks Kagan engages all students we turn things around literally instead of facing the back of classmate's head we turn students around to face each other instead of calling on one student at time we can call on all students using the Kagan structure timed pair share the teacher asks question in pairs partner shares for 30 seconds then partner shares for 30 seconds everyone has turn sharing with partner is safe there's no need to hide and just little over minute we engage every student in the same amount of time in the traditional class we engage one student what's better engage one student or engage every student absolutely right everyone learns more it's not just the amount of Engagement that matters it also matters how we engage students with Kagan structure we engage students with interactive pair and team structures while students Master academic curriculum they develop essential social skills they learn teamwork skills they develop communication skills they practice leadership skills these are the very College and Career Readiness skills our standards call for in teams students are no longer isolated or competing against each other they celebrate each other's successes they are on the same side cooperation leads to kinder and more caring kids we create buddies not bullies kagan's simple yet powerful structures transform education in numbered heads together teammates put their heads together to review everyone is more active and the content becomes more memorable in quiz quiz trade students repeatedly quiz classmates they have so much more fun being up and active than working alone in rally coach Partners solve problems together instead of independent practice students have appear to coach them and provide immediate feedback why teach the traditional way when we have so many alternatives to engage every student Kagan isn't something we think might work Kagan is scientifically research based hundreds of studies on Cooperative learning show tremendous academic and social gains over traditional learning with Kagan teachers are engaging their disengaged students struggling schools are making dramatic gains entire districts are raising their test scores Kagan Works Kagan works because Kagan creates full engagement for every student engaged students aren't bored or disruptive engaged students enjoy School more engaged students learn more Kagan it's all about engagement
