The document discusses engaging students in flexible learning. It suggests grabbing students' attention, informing them of long-term goals, reminding them of what they already know, engaging them collectively, demonstrating and informing, offering guidance and alternatives, letting them learn through experience, providing relevant feedback, developing appropriate assessment tasks, and focusing on engagement rather than content. Flexible learning is about how students are engaged, not just the content.
