Description
What makes students want to achieve highly and engage deeply in learning? What makes students want to study certain subjects over others? What makes anyone want to do anything at all? In this course, you will investigate questions such as these to understand the role of motivation in how people learn. Topics include values, beliefs, flow, choice, rewards, punishment, and passion, and how they can be harnessed to create learning and wellbeing among teachers, their students, and their leaders in educational settings.
