Motivating and Engaging Middle and High School Students Grades 6-12
| This online course for teachers is designed for educators in grades 6-12 who want to light that internal fire and re-ignite interest so that their students are intrinsically motivated to learn and engage. Teachers will learn about the basic framework of motivation as well as the science behind student motivation and engagement. Teachers will learn specific techniques for increasing motivation by creating a learner-centered classroom that allows students some appropriate voice and choice as well as allows them to set realistic goals they can achieve. Other suggestions for increasing engagement will be explored such as ways to make learning more meaningful. Classroom management issues will be addressed including the importance of teaching and supporting social and emotional skills. Finally, teachers will gain strategies for moving from student engagement to student empowerment, so they feel they have control over their own learning.
