Description
Students who frequently passively disengage from classroom learning typically go unnoticed by their teachers. Disengagement has implications for a student's inclusion, lifelong learning and wellbeing. This thesis investigated students' experiences of passive disengagement by using a visual methodology called the School Engagement Photo Technique (SEPT) and interviews with students. Students identified passive disengagement as a fluid and familiar experience in the classroom. The study also found that teacher-student relationships and teacher pedagogy were significant contributors to student (dis)engagement. Implications for teachers are discussed.
