As teachers across the country struggle to keep their students engaged, what should modern “student engagement” even look, sound and feel like? We sit down with our Senior Middle School Correspondent Geneviève DeBose Akinnagbe to explore the ins and outs of student engagement and discuss how schools can ensure every child is engaged and invested in their learning. But first, we explore recent headlines in education regarding a lawsuit over literacy, a teacher fired for being gay, and a study that looked at whether high-stakes testing increases teacher attrition.
