WHY: a booklet about motivating young people

How do you encourage all young people to ‘do their best’ in school and not simply enough to ‘get by’?

How do you handle a difficult class where many students are bored, turned off or disillusioned?

In this short easy-to-read booklet Ian Smith answers these questions and many others posed by teachers attending his workshops on motivation. He has drawn on what has been written on motivation across the world over the last 20 years. The booklet addresses three ‘why’ questions which point the way towards how teachers help students to be self-motivated.

Some of the topics covered in the booklet are….

  • Signs of disillusionment
