We all like to have a choice and a say in what we do. How can we offer that to our students? Does choice need to be big complicated ideas? Or can we simplify choice to help pass the ownership to our students? If you are interested in engaging your students as soon as they enter your learning space, this is a conversation you will want to join! I have researched some of the best practices in offering choices and applied them in the gym setting. While I found simple choices had a great impact in physical education, I believe all educators can benefit from offering choice in any environment. You may be inspired to offer more choice after hearing about the successes I had, as well as learning about the challenges I experienced. So if you are looking for motivation to offer more choice to help engage students, this session is for you!
