Motivate Me
Motivating Learning Without Gimmicks or Guilt
WORKSHOP DESCRIPTION:
Deep down everyone hungers to learn. The problem is educators prefer shortcuts that short-circuit inner motivation in the classroom. It's easier to use incentives and even punishments to motivate a learner. The problem? Study after study shows that the use of behavioral incentives to modify behavior fail to provoke long-term results. Is there a better way? Absolutely! Just feed the NEEDS.
Or, as we call'em...the GROWLS...and watch'em learn!
