Why Chosen

Over the years I have really wondered how to better engage students inside the classroom. I really wanted to make them excited for the subject of Business and Professional Communication. So, I started reading books about how to better "spark their learning". This book really resonated with me as a way to really engage students, help them become emotionally invested in the material, help motivate them to learn, and help them retain the information for years to come.
