These are “Eight Simple Rules for Engaging Learners” gleaned from Heather Ross (McToonish, 2007.07.16), who’d picked them up from a conference presentation by Ellen Wagner the day before:

1. Capture their attention;
2. Convince them to care;
3. Motivate them to change;
4. Give them choices;
5. Connect them with community;
6. Induce them to participate;
7. Enable opportunities to contribute; [and]
8. Make it an experience to remember.

That’s a tall order that I want to reflect upon further, possibly after tracking down details of Wagner’s presentation.
