Shaping the Future of Student Behavior
The Behavior Brief, created by Minga, gathers insights from school leaders on the shifts in student behavior affecting classrooms today. This report highlights key issues like attendance drops, distractions such as cell phones and vaping, and their impact on engagement and instructional time.
Insights are collected through an interactive “Engagement Wall” at major tradeshows, where educators share their perspectives on three key areas. The results offer a powerful look at the trends shaping schools today and what’s to come in the future.
