Motivating Your Students provides tools and techniques to bring teaching to life and to effectively motivate students to learn.

Today's students - raised on cable, video games, the Internet, and MTV - demand more from their teachers than ever before. In order to reach these students and encourage them to want to learn, today's teachers must actively engage them in the learning process. This text focuses on helping teachers do just that, regardless of level of experience or subject matter.

Motivating Your Students provides real-life, practical suggestions, with a focus on lesson planning and teaching strategies. It focuses on effective communication strategies and presentation skills for classroom use to inspire students to enjoy learning.

This book will help teachers to do the following: understand and meet students' motivational needs; present information and structure education activities to match students' diverse personalities and learning styles; be more persuasive and influential; get and keep students' attention so that they participate more fully; use storytelling as a powerful tool to make abstract concepts more concrete; and make each lesson more memorable.
