Samenvatting

Students’ engagement in education is regarded as crucial for the study success. Not only students’ engagement provides another dimension to the learning process, but it also mediates the effects of psychological states and situational factors. How the students’ engagement strategy can contribute to mitigation of negative effects of social and psychological factors? In her presentation Dr Beata Kviatek, Jean Monnet Chair in Sustainable EU Economy, shares experience in developing and application of such students’ engagement strategy in the IBS MIBM master programme course “European Business in a Global context”. She invites to discuss the main elements of the students’ engagement strategy, which can diminish the negative effects of social and psychological factors, and draws lessons for further work on students’ engagement.
