In this professional development, the participants will observe different educational strategies for maintaining motivation in students. This is done through the use of various platforms, including but not limited to: VoiceThread, Padlet, Edpuzzle. Attendees will also learn to design lessons based around individual student needs and motivations, through strategies such as social-emotional learning.
In addition, attendees will be able to see a live demonstration of said practices in Jersey City, NJ.
The professional development itself encourages the participation of the audience, where the participant will experiment with different motivational strategies. This demonstration will then lead to discussion about some theories behind student motivation and how to apply them to lessons. It is these theories that led to my selection as a teacher of the year both in 2015/2016 and this current year, 2021/2022.
