Elizaveta Pachina Teaching Ideas Poor student achievement is often attributed to a lack of motivation and rewards are given in an attempt to increase that vital student motivation. The statement, "If they would only try harder, then they would do better on tests, take more risks, or earn better grades" is often heard regarding the students.

Please note that this blog post might not necessarily represent the beliefs or opinions of ITTT. Student...  [Read more]
