Engagement is the key... and how to get it.

We're all about engagement and connections.

And, we happened to come across this article written by the folks at Lambda Solutions that not only speaks to the importance of engagement but also some solid strategies that our Project Leaders can take to ensure they are maximizing engagement.

Specifically, they identify 7 strategies. You can read the full article here.

1. Set Clear, Achievable, and Measurable Learning Objectives
2. Create Interactive Content
3. Use Gamification
4. Individualize Programming
5. Analyze Learner Behaviour
6. Keep Modules Short
7. Use Notifications

While the 7 strategies above all apply to the traditional (passive) online learning models, many of them are equally applicable within the Huddle Up platform as well - and we encourage our Project Leaders to seek out ways to implement them within the interactive cohorts that share ideas and feedback within Huddle Up.

How do we at Huddle Up view engagement?

We agree that there are strategies that can make traditional learning more engaging. But we also believe an equally important factor in engagement happens EARLIER in the process by addressing the following three aspects.

When we get the three questions above answered correctly, the learning is naturally much more engaging. Adding the 7 strategies into this environment is like frosting on the cake! (We like frosting too.)

Looking for ways to make your online experiences more engaging?

We encourage our Project Leaders to consider how they can use Huddle Up's interactive framework to make learning solution-focused and engaging. And, utilize the elements above to strengthen the online experiences you create.

At Huddle Up Learning, we believe in the power of collaboration to enhance educational practices. One exemplary leader in this movement is Dr. Molly Myers, the Lower School Principal at Shanghai Community International School (SCIS), who has transformed the professional development landscape at her school. Watch the full podcast here (39:33) The Journey Begins: A Year of Growth 2023-24 "I want an organization that learns autonomously, period." Two years ago, Dr. Molly Myers initiated a structured approach to Professional Learning Communities (PLCs) within her faculty. To start the 2023-24 school year, different teams of faculty members chose their own PLC topics, focusing on improved instruction and identifying effective ways to measure student learning. Dr. Myers structured specific time set aside in the yearly calendar for teams to meet within their PLCs and share updates and feedback on the strategies they were implementing as well as the process itself. The culminatio...

Implementing a Strategic Plan: The Challenges and How Huddle Up Makes It Easier

Once an organization has developed a strategic plan, the next hurdle is to make it actionable. However, even well-thought-out plans often face significant obstacles during implementation. Plans tend to “gather dust,” remaining largely invisible to the wider organization and failing to adapt when conditions change. Huddle Up aims to solve that problem with a new way to make strategic plans dynamic, transparent experiences where evidence and feedback build shared accountability from all constituents. See how Huddle Up changes strategic planning In our previous post , we explored the challenges organizations face when developing a strategic plan. While the development phase presents hurdles in goal setting, stakeholder engagement, and planning efficiency, the real test begins when it’s time to put that plan into action. Even the best-crafted strategic plans can fall flat during the implementation phase, leading to poor execution, missed deadlines, and disengaged teams. H...
