Jonathan C. Erwin, MA, has enjoyed over 35 years in education as a secondary English teacher, professional development specialist, author, and independent consultant. Early in his teaching career, Jon attended training in Glasser's Choice Theory, learning the importance of appealing to intrinsic motivation rather than using the carrot-and-stick approach. When he put this theory into practice in his classroom, the results exceeded his expectations.
