Unlocking students' curiosity to learn: Crafting compelling invitations to learn

Unlocking students’ curiosity: Crafting compelling invitations to learn

How can you ignite your students’ curiosity and interest them in learning from the very first day? The first impression of learning students receive from a unit or course description can set the tone for students’ engagement and enthusiasm to learn. This hands-on workshop invites you to transform that first impression into a compelling invitation to learn that engages students, sparks their curiosity and motivates them to participate actively in the learning process.

In this workshop, you will learn how to:
1.Craft compelling questions that are thought-provoking and incite students to seek answers.
2.Design your invitation to learn so it engages and excites students about the learning process.
3.Highlight the academic benefits and personal growth opportunities students will receive.
4.Incorporate a call to action that encourages students to begin their learning journey.
5.Employ language that resonates with and inspires students to learn.

Bring your unit or course description with you, and we’ll take you through crafting an inviting and compelling invitation to learn that engages students’ curiosity and promotes deep learning. You will leave this workshop equipped with a draft of your invitation to learn and a toolkit to refine and enliven your unit or course descriptions, ensuring your students are eager and excited to embark on their learning journey.
