Description
This book is written explicitly for teachers. It offers them principles and strategies to use in motivating their students to learn. Although the book offers theories that explain students' motivational orientations, it focuses on strategies teachers can use to optimize those orientations and direct them toward the academic learning goals of the school. No other book in this field is so explicitly directed to the practical needs of classroom teachers.
