Archived Webinars Ask Dr. Judy Webinar: How Can I Motivate My Students? http://bit.ly/deeq07 View webinar with Dr. Willis' unique brain-based perspective on ideas to motivate children. Some students come to us already discouraged, with negative baggage about their own potential, school in general, or the subjects we teach. How can we change that negativity to motivation? The keys are discussed in this informative one-hour webinar including how to connect with students' curiosity, help them recognize incremental progress, and use other neurological strategies to reverse negativity and sustain a positive attitude. "Why Don't Students Pay Attention" from May 11, 2010 is available in ASCD archives http://bit.ly/a0lbma. The first 10 minutes have a voice repeat/delay, but that goes away and the rest is clear. The next webinar is October 14 th about Helping students PARTICIPATE and learn from their mistakes and will also be available in ASCD.org archives soon thereafter. The webinars in the ongoing series are interactive and sustained with an ongoing discussion group at the free ASCD EDGE network discussion page called, How the Brain Learns http://edge.ascd.org/_how-the-brain-learns/group/110564/127586.html This free ASCD EDGE website discussion group is a place for you to ask questions, make comments, share your knowledge, or post lesson plans to share with colleagues and other educators from around the world. I'll look for questions or comments, especially those tagged in the title with, "Ask Dr Judy Question" that I'll often respond to on the website and/or in an upcoming Webinar. Other educators will also respond to your questions as we share ideas and resources.
