Reversing the Middle School Engagement Cliff

from Ed Resonance Talks · host Rob Fryer

Why does student motivation plummet the moment they enter middle school? Based on the groundbreaking research paper Reversing the Middle School Engagement Cliff, this podcast dissects the systemic and psychological factors that lead to student "check-out." Join us as we translate academic data into actionable strategies, exploring how autonomy, belonging, and instructional relevance can transform the adolescent learning experience. We don't just identify the cliff; we build the bridge back to engagement.
