Artificial Intelligence is rapidly reshaping education and work — but without conscious action, it risks deepening existing inequalities.
How to Energize Your Lessons
Course Summary
In today’s fast-paced, short-term attention spans and diverse educational environments, traditional teaching methods are no longer enough to captivate students. Learners need energy, participation, interaction and emotional connection to stay engaged and succeed.
This course’s intentition is to equip educators with practical tools, strategies and activities to create energized, lively, active and motivating learning spaces.
Through a combination of active methodologies, emotional activation techniques and creative class management strategies, participants will discover how to reignite energy, focus and motivation — even in the most challenging groups.
This course is not about entertainment: it’s about deliberately energizing learning to maximize student involvement, autonomy, and positive emotions connected to school.
Course Goals
- Learn how to design lessons that foster movement, interaction and emotional engagement;
- Apply active learning techniques that stimulate participation and motivation;
- Use energizers, warm-ups and classroom rituals strategically;

- Use positive communication to maintain an inclusive, cheerful atmosphere;
- Integrate gamification and storytelling into everyday teaching;
- Promote a joyful and supportive classroom culture across different age groups;
- Promote intercultural awareness;
- Transfer and share core values, experiences and effective teaching practices with other teachers and colleagues;
- Improve technical and English language, communication and social skills.
