Task Definition: A Motivating Task = Eager Learners!
Jansen, Barbara A.
Library Media Connection, v23 n5 p34 Feb 2005
Teachers who design meaningful and developmentally appropriate tasks will motivate their students to engage in the content and as students work through the Big6 process, interacting with the content, they learn and practice information and technology skills. A valuable task definition technique is to develop questions that students in each group will need to answer to successfully complete the task.
