**Student Engagement and Technology** . media type="youtube" key="MmGJnYZU1ro" width="560" height="315"

The purpose of this wiki is to gather information about how technology supports student engagement. I taught for 13 years in the middle years, and since moving up to high school, I have noticed a huge difference in student interest and motivation. Having taught current high school students when they were in Grade 8, I have noticed that students who were engaged in junior high have lost that "spark" that helped them be engaged. Where did the spark go? How can the students get it back? Can technology help foster engagement and motivation in these high school students?
