Motivation is such a difficult topic! Keeping everyone motivated is so hard for most teachers and classes. I cannot wait to see what you are able to find from this project.
ReplyDeleteI agree with Jay, this is such a difficult topic but very important!! I look forward to following you and seeing what results you find! Something that I am going to add to my plan is how I plan on sharing it or presenting my results and findings! I think your plan looks awesome though and best of luck!
ReplyDeleteI never thought about giving incentives for homework completion, its hard enough to get kids to finish their work during the class period. What do you think about parents getting involved and monitoring students homework assignments. Our parents have have access to view grades online, and become involved in knowing what assignments have not been completed and work submitted.
