What Drives Student Motivation?

Motivation is why we do what we do; getting students to do anything requires them to be motivated. If you desire to get your students to do work, listen to you talk, and show up to class, you have to understand what drives and motivates them. Without that understanding, you are left trying to forcibly drag a horse when all it requires is a pat and a nudge.

What Is Good Feedback?

Feedback is crucial to your students’ academic success. If they do not know what they can improve upon, they will never be able to do better. Yet feedback can also be hurtful, uninsightful, and unmotivating. Therefore, to ensure good academic outcomes for students, you must understand how to give them feedback.
