Carnegie Mellon U Eberly Center: "if students clearly see how coursework connects to their goals, interests, and concerns, they will be more likely to value it, and thus more motivated to invest time and effort." https://t.co/XR2AxJ0Miy

[OLCHS Spartan Plus @OLSpartanPlus]

Building motivation in classrooms: 1. Reward students with opp's for social interaction 2. Provide audiences for student work 3. Reduce "effort" needed to complete an assignment. 4. Connect to real-world situations 5. Offer students meaningful choice https://t.co/YFgDV4gQfF
