This multipurpose guide for teachers covers brain-friendly strategies for motivating and challenging even the most resistant students. Learn why students lack motivation, the effects of rewards on learning, as well as steps to bridge the connection between multiple intelligences and student motivation.
Donna Walker Tileston′s distinctive approach covers:
The roots of motivation: cognitive, metacognitive, and the self-system; motivating students to begin a lesson or task: using novelty, attention, climate, attitude, perception, importance, efficacy, and more; motivating students to finish a task; on-task and off-task behaviours; a model for developing motivation in the classroom; a model for facilitating motivation; vocabulary pre-test, post-test, and summary.
