What if it's a motivation thing?

Submitted by Deborah Hazen on Wed, 07/08/2009 - 5:36am.

What if no one really believes that you should learn just to take the test or get into college? What if, instead, teacher preservice training programs just do a really poor job of teaching about how the brain learns and MOTIVATION. And what if all of the years of "do this to get into college" are just a whole lot of clueless, but well meaning teachers trying to motivate students to do their best?!?!?!?!?
