Course description:
We often feel like we lack the motivation to do something yet at other times we are so motivated that nothing can distract us. So why is it like that, and more importantly how do we use this to help our learners to stay motivated in the learning process? This course has been created to answer this very important question. By learning about motivation through the psychological view and finding new methods we, as educators, can facilitate the learners' experience in a way that awakens their motivation and curiosity. The methods used in the course are very hands-on as the participant will take part in several group discussions and tasks, tackle some interesting case studies and get tasks to put the learned material to practical use in the educator’s own teaching context.

Trainer:
