Overview / Summary of Topics: Motivation Relevance Fostering self-efficacy Creating satisfaction Fostering social belonging Lesson design project layout and materials needed Item of Interest: The lecture on relevance was the most interesting thing for me this week. I especially liked the note to focus on fulfillment of future goals. I know that I have definitely been guilty of retaining information only long enough for a test (current benefit) and I know that connecting something to future goals gives me more connection and reason to learn and retain information. I think this can especially be helpful when students are required to take courses that they may not actually be interested in. Areas of Help or Clarification: I do not have areas of clarification this week.
