Show Notes

Don Berg is an author, education psychology researcher, alternative education practitioner, and leader. He has over 20 years of experience leading children in self-directed educational settings. In this episode we focus on motivation, going beyond the traditional intrinsic-extrinsic paradigm to discuss the need for autonomy, competency and relatedness in order for students to feel motivated and engage with learning in the classroom. Some great ideas on how to make small changes to help motivation, engagement and wellbeing.
