• Group 1 : The magic is in you. However, an extraordinary magician is inventive and creative. This magician uses the unique environment to make magic truly magical.
• Group 2 : One way is to have a transference of the love and passion of the subject to your pupils when you show it in your class.
• Group 3 : With good planning, we can reduce the factors that hinder engagement, especially the internal factors
• Group 4 : ... Create novelty in excitement.
• Group 5 : We also learnt that while there are external factors which may affect pupils’ engagement, it is more important for us to work on the internal factors which is within our control.

• Group 6 : ...Many use music or videos that serve as tuning in but if these are not carefully chosen, they would only serve to gain the attention of the students rather than serving as a gateway to engagement with can result in the occurance of learning. ...
... However, IT needs to be looked upon as more of a tool to facilitate and encourage learning rather than being a tool to activate engagement alone. Perhaps this is where a Future school differs in how we see effective IT integration into daily lessons.
• Group 7 : Passion is contagious. Spread it to the children.
• Group 8 : All the pictures depict differentiated learning. It allows us to see that through nature, we can see a diverse range of engaged learning...
.... Fun lesson may not equate to an enriching lesson.
