DESCRIPTION:
You’ve seen him on TV, you’ve watched his legendary videos, including "How Difficult Can This Be? The F.A.T. City Workshop." one of the most widely distributed films in the educational media, and you may even have been lucky enough to see him speak in person. Rick Lavoie, one of the world’s most engaging educational speakers, will be coming to teach, inspire, and entertain us in three inspiring live and recorded Hot Topic webinar sessions this fall. This first session on motivation will provide us with unique and proven methods to motivate even our most challenging students. Now, more than ever, Rick’s words of wisdom will be a welcome source of guidance and hope during, and beyond, these uncertain times. If what you’ve been doing hasn’t been yielding the kinds of results you want, sign up and grab your opportunity to watch Rick speak and ask him your questions.
In a recent National Educational Association survey of 2,000 American teachers, 70+ of their students were termed “unmotivated”. These troubling data reflect that our current motivational strategies are simply ineffective.
This innovative model to motivate and inspire students is rooted in research and approaches designed by marketers and advertisers on Madison Avenue. The advertising industry invests millions of dollars annually conducting research and surveys to determine how to motivate children at all age levels. Of course, their research is designed to convince kids to purchase their products…..but the basic tenets of their approach are easily transferable to the classroom.
This session will discuss and demonstrate this unique approach that allows you to individualize your motivational strategies in order to meet your student’s individualized motivational profile.
