About this title

Synopsis

Learn from the Engagement Masters

Education is a battle for attention. Whether you are a teacher trying to reach a classroom full of students or a parent trying to prepare your child for the world to come, getting our audience to just listen can be a real challenge. When students have access to personalized entertainment sitting in their pockets, anything that doesn’t jump out and grab their attention right away is easily drowned out.

But there is a place where even today all those modern distractions melt away—Disneyland. When you’re there, you’re not only in a different world, you’re in Walt Disney's world. Whether you are Peter Pan flying over London in Fantasyland or a rebel fighter struggling against the First Order in Galaxy’s Edge, you are 100% engaged. Sights, sounds and even smells ensure that your brain is locked into the experience.

If we can bring those techniques into our teaching, we can create engaging experiences for our students, grab their attention, and boost their learning. You’ll improve your teaching and create a place students want to visit.

In this book we’ll learn from the world’s greatest engagement masters—the Disney Imagineers. Through narrative visits to attractions throughout Disneyland and Disney California Adventure, you’ll experience a visit to the park as we share memories and see how the Imagineers make it all work. We’ll be guided by Imagineering icon Marty Sklar’s Mickey’s 10 Commandments of Theme Park Design as we turn our classrooms into the most engaging places on Earth!
