Engaging Students via Issues-based Topics
This session presents teaching strategies for student engagement that increase understanding and help students broaden their personal perspectives when addressing issues in agriculture. Designed to include all styles of learners, these hands-on strategies give students ownership of their learning. Agricultural literacy is taught using creative techniques—a readers’ theater, futures wheel, concept maps, infographics, social media positions, decision matrices (and many more)—that give students opportunities to speak their voices and think critically. These strategies will also help students who may feel vulnerable expressing their opinions or openly changing their opinions. Suitable for secondary, college, adult, and volunteer audiences.

Denise Stewardson is an Extension Associate Professor and Director of the Utah Agriculture in the Classroom program at Utah State University.
