Topic— What should a teacher know about motivation?

You should include two sections: 1) Briefly discuss the various theories about motivation (Behavioral-Skinner, Bandura; Cognitive-Piaget and Adkinson; Attributrion; Humanistic-Maslow) 2) Discuss your plan/strategies for motivating students once you have your own classroom.

I changed my mind about the format of the quiz. There will be 15 multiple choice questions and two short answer essays.

It’s not that any of them actually believed Senator Obama to be foreign. But the implicit association test measures the way the unconscious mind works, and in following instructions to sort images rapidly, the mind of many of the participants (college students at the two schools) balked at accepting a black candidate as fully American. This result mattered: The more difficulty a person had in classifying Senator Obama as American, the less likely that person was to support him.

You can read the study here.

You can also take a similar implicit association test here.

We are going to move on to a new topic Tuesday- Learning theory.

The first learning theory we will explore is Behaviorism, so be sure to read Chapter 5 of your text.

A new poll.
