Engagement- William James

Begin with the line of [a student’s] native interests,
 and offer him objects that have some immediate connection with these. . . . 
Schools in which these methods preponderate
 are schools where discipline is easy, 
and where the voice of the master claiming order 
and attention in threatening tones need never be heard. 
~ William James, Talks to Teachers
