Creating Engaging Learning Environments

In this section of this web site, we are focusing attention on the affective side of the teaching and learning process. Emotions play such a major role in learning process, both positively and negatively. There is a great deal of interesting material on this subject, some of which we have captured here.

For example, in this section you will find the following:

  • Wayne Lewrey's latest survey on our student population
  • Tips for dealing with our younger students
  • Tips for handling that all-important first day of class
  • Strategies for dealing with difficult students
  • Tips for using humour in the classroom
  • Tips for motivating students
  • The Student Advisor program at Algonquin

And much more!
