Abstract
Motivating, engaging, and inspiring learners to achieve learning outcomes is no easy task and will never cease to be a hot topic for learning professionals. Because 'student engagement' means different things to different people, it is very important to have a shared understanding of what 'student engagement' is before exploring how to engage students. This workshop will focus on the Open Polytechnic as a distance learning provider, how to apply 'student engagement' to our practice. In the workshop we will share our views on what 'student engagement' means from a design and development perspective, and invite you to share your thoughts on the term from a teaching and facilitating point of view.
