Introduction to Teaching Adults. Module 8: Enhancing Motivation.
Boshier, Roger
This module on enhancing motivation is the eighth of 11 modules in the set, Introduction to Teaching Adults. Designed to meet the learning needs of part-time continuing education instructors, these modules can be used as resource materials for local workshops or study-discussion groups, as self-instruction (each module takes approximately two hours), and as a correspondence course. (Source information on correspondence study is cited in module 1.) All modules except the first one are designed to be used in part in conjunction with an audiotape. Focus of the module is on teaching techniques useful in managing adult learners individually and in groups. The booklet provides the basic information and exercises with answers on these topics: nature of motivation, motives for participation, motives for learning, and enhancing motivation. (YLB)
