Listen ""You can’t wake a person who is pretending to be asleep." Teach Different with Navajo saying - Education"
Episode Synopsis
Can you motivate people who are reluctant to learn?
Motivating people to do things is exhausting, and many times futile. It happens in the classroom with students who are reluctant to do work. Sometimes the reluctance comes from the fact that they don't have the skills to succeed. Other times, the students have the skills, but are creating the impression that they don't care. Teachers must figure out the correct cause of the lack of motivation and implement the right approach to turn things around.
Join Steve and Dan Fouts – founders of Teach Different and twin brothers with over 50 years of teaching experience – along with United States educator Scott Steward (Big Stew), professor of business and founder of the Genius Lab, Inc, for a compelling conversation about education, enriched by the Teach Different Method.
Whether you are a teacher, school leader, or simply someone interested in experiencing the joy and fulfillment of challenging kids with big ideas, join our worldwide Community of Educators FREE for 30 days. Membership includes access to our robust library of resources, conversation plans, and lively discussions among teachers and faculty.
