Fall break begins October 17 for students. Campus offices will be closed on Friday, October 18. Campus will resume normal operations on on Monday, October 21.
Meet the students where they are and motivate them to where they need to be.
We have all experienced the vexation of unmotivated students. What’s causing the lack of motivation? Can we do anything about it? The Student Motivation Faculty Learning Group delved into this topic and surveyed the faculty’s perceptions of this. Watch/listen to the presentation below and follow along with the slides. The resources from the Powerpoint are also listed below.
