JESSICA LAHEY, NY Times Bestselling Author will discuss her book _the
Gift of Failure.__USM Mellowes Hall_
What's the best way to motivate students to own their education and
develop resilience? Research has shown that the key to all these
things is intrinsic motivation, or motivation that comes from within.
Jessica summarizes the current research on autonomy-supportive
parenting and teaching, competence, rewards, desirable difficulties,
praise, and failure.
Jessica offers practical advice for fostering intrinsic motivation and
weaning kids off of extrinsic motivators such as short-term rewards,
bribes, honors, coercion, and yes, even grades, while giving kids the
support and encouragement they need in order to succeed.
