Workshop: Motivating Students in STEM Courses

Register Here | Facilitator: Laina Lockett 

Do you teach a STEM course but feel that your students lack motivation? If you answered yes, you aren’t alone. Since the pandemic, professors across the country have been expressing that they have noticed a general trend in reduced student motivation. In this workshop we will discuss theories of motivation so that you can engage your students whether you teach a large class, teach online, have many non-majors, or are teaching an upper-level course. You will gain tips, tricks, and ideas that can be implemented into your course this semester and beyond!

Part of the Level 1 Foundational Practices in STEM Education Cluster.
