Academia Next: Student engagement and motivation post-pandemic

Academia Next: Student engagement and motivation post-pandemic

Society as a whole has undergone massive and rapid sociological change over the past decade caused by technology and more recently the pandemic, with Gen Z markedly different to preceding generations in terms of their studying habits and preferences and their overarching priorities and concerns. In this session we look at what instructors can do to maximise engagement and participation among this new demographic of students using examples from universities in Ireland who have adopted innovative approaches to teaching and learning over the past 5-6 years with great results.
