Summary:

The book contains a number of features, across all chapters, that will help the reader to understand student motivation, and to become efficacious at implementing research-informed strategies to positively enhance student motivation. ? • Summary tables/figures: several brief tables and figures are integrated into each chapter to summarize key points. • Understanding Your Own Motivation: within each chapter, there are opportunities for readers to engage in brief thought-experiments that will allow them to experience some of the motivational issues that their own students encounter on a daily basis. Anderman Proposal 4 • Developmental perspective: each chapter includes discussions of developmental differences in motivation; whereas the topics addressed in each chapter are relevant to students of all ages, effective implementation of these strategies must consider students’ ages and grade levels. • Diversity perspective: motivation is not a “one size fits all” topic, and strategies to enhance student motivation must be sensitive to students’ varying backgrounds, culture, and experiences. This is addressed throughout the book. • Chapter summaries: Each chapter concludes with a chapter summary, recapping the main take-away points that were covered. • Applying What You Have Learned: At the end of each chapter, there is an additional application exercise. • Strategies: Research-informed instructional strategies are presented in call-out boxes in each chapter.
