S2E2 w/ Andy Hargreaves: Five Paths of Student Engagement: Blazing the Trail to Learning and Success

Today we have the opportunity to hear about Andy Hargreaves' new book Five Paths of Student Engagement: Blazing the Trail to Learning and Success (2021) that he co-wrote with colleague Dennis Shirley from Boston College. It turns out that Andy has been very prolific throughout the pandemic. He’s used this time to put thoughts into words, reflecting back on his research done in education systems around the world and synthesizing it into meaningful reflections on the topics most relevant in education today. 

Student engagement is one such topic. The pandemic has forced educators to think about how to engage all learners, not only in the classroom, but also when learning shifts to the home environment. Throughout their book and this discussion, Andy notes the shift from The Age of Achievement and Effort to The Age of Engagement, Well-Being and Identity. My question - is it a shift or an evolution?
