What educators are saying

I really liked this TED Talk myself, so it was nice when my class liked it too (not the most common occurrence)
Some great take aways for anyone interested in bringing some psychology to your class. I found a lot of my university bound students were especially keen on it.

Description

A Viewing Guide to get your class motivated!

Inspire and empower your students to become self directed learners, and to put a bit of perspective on just trying to get the grade (or the pay check)!

Dan Pink is an American author and former political speechwriter. He has written about several topics related to social science, looking at everything from regret, to sales, to motivation, to career choices, and many more. In this TED Talk he focusses on the large gap between what science knows about how people are motivated, and the ways most of our institutions (businesses, schools, etc.) attempt to motivate people. In the end, understanding how people are driven to do great things will hopefully allow us to understand how to get the best out of ourselves.

This resource includes digital or printable handouts including:

  1. Background sheet on Dan Pink (including the link to the talk)
  2. Pre-Viewing Question sheet to gauge your students current understanding of motivation and the behind it.
  3. During Viewing Question sheet to complete as you watch the talk.
  4. Two Options for After Viewing Question Sheets with follow up research tasks, and paragraph responses.

Use any one of the sheets individually or in combination with the others!

All handouts are in Word format and are 100% editable.

Happy teaching!
