Engelmann's theories

Engelmann's theories, primarily centered around the concept of "engagement," suggest that individuals learn and understand better when they are actively involved in their learning process. He emphasized the importance of dialogue, interaction, and critical thinking in education, advocating for methods that encourage students to explore, ask questions, and connect new knowledge to their experiences. Engelmann believed that effective learning environments should foster collaboration and make learning relevant and interesting, allowing students to develop a deeper understanding of the material rather than just memorizing facts.
