Engaged Learning Pedagogy • According to David Thornton Moore (2013), engaged learning pedagogies “induce the learner to look carefully at her experience, to question her own assumptions, to place the experience in relation to larger institutional and societal processes and discourses, to hear others’ voices, to grapple with the question of why things happen the way they do, to imagine how things might be different, to read her experience in terms given by major social theories and to critique those theories from the perspective of her experience – to engage, in other words, in serious critical thinking” (201 -202).

Engaged Learning Pedagogy • “As the learner's values are examined and refined, broader experience and growing confidence enable growing commitment. Teachers who want their students to engage with transformative learning processes confront an additional challenge. Beyond the challenge of just getting students to pay attention, teachers find that students resist transformation--it necessarily threatens the student's current identity and worldview. ” (Bowen, 2005)
