Helping Students Learn Because They WANT To!
You can be a dynamic, motivated teacher or administrator,
but here is an opportunity to "take it to the next
level." For meaningful learning, your students…and
teachers…must be motivated from within! Take your
motivating strategies to a deeper level and increase
your skills at helping students become intrinsically
motivated to learn. Administrators, learn how to create
an environment in your school that fosters self-motivation
among teachers and students.

-
teach the skills that foster self-motivation

build relationships that enhance intrinsic
motivation

get students involved as active partners
in learning

their learning

experiences

activities in your classroom

to stretch and want to learn
