1. Share intellectual control with students.
Building a sense of shared ownership is an effective way of achieving high levels of student interest and engagement. It can be achieved in many ways; many of these involve some form of formal or informal negotiation about parts or all of the content, tasks or assessment.
Another complementary approach is to ensure that students' questions, comments and suggestions regularly influence, initiate (or terminate) what is done.
