Helping Kids Achieve Their Best: Motivation - Theories and Practices

Comprehensively updated, this second edition includes a new chapter on student achievement emotion. Throughout the text, each chapter includes a variety of examples and research-based tools that can be put into action immediately, along with vignettes, question points, action stations, and recommended readings, which help educators apply the suggested approaches in their own contexts. The book is hands on and interactive, inviting readers to recall challenges they have faced in their own teaching or parenting experiences and to apply what they have learned to better understand and cope with these challenges more effectively. This book is an essential resource for pre- and in-service teachers, as well as parents who aspire to motivate their children and help them achieve their best.
