April 28, 2011 - The Intentional Teacher: Cultivating Intrinsic Motivation to Fuel Effort and Student Success w/Joan Fretz
Presenter: Joan Fretz
Registration link: http://www.eventbrite.com/event/1520368463
Intentional teachers employ a framework of practices that invite students to choose beneficial behaviors and lead them to realizing their full potential. Rather than rely on the threat of assessments or extrinsic rewards, Intentional Teachers focus on cultivating intrinsic motivation and growth mindsets, which inspire students to value effort, crave challenge and persist in the face of obstacles. Join us as we explore intentional practices for focusing attention, developing positive self-concepts and creating optimal learning experiences for all of our students. This workshop is recommended for teachers and administrators at all levels of education.
