Ideas to Help Increase Student Motivation
Ideas to Help Increase Student Motivation
By [http://ezinearticles.com/?expert=Nathan_C_McVeigh]Nathan C McVeigh
When most people are presented several options for completing a task, they usually go with what they already know works best. For example, peanut butter and jelly are best spread onto a slice of toast with a knife as opposed to a fork or a whisk. In his article, "Turning on the Lights," Marc Prensky clearly communicates a "whisk" problem in the modern classroom. He determines that the lack of student motivation is a problem that can be solved as easily as replacing a whisk with a knife. In the beginning, he presents his readers with a history of the classroom and what it meant to past generations. He claims that school used to be a place of exploration and discovery. School was where children went to understand the world they lived in, because there weren't many other ways a child could learn about what was beyond their backyards.
