Engaging Kinaesthetic Learners

I found this YouTube clip. OK, it's not on the curriculum, but if you want to show your kinaesthetic (doing in the real world) learners that they are indeed capable, how about a week learning to do something like this?

The Strange Science of Motivation

Daniel Pink's presentation at a TED talk is life changing.

See for yourself - it's an excellent 10 minutes:

So, in summary, it's autonomy, mastery and purpose that really drive us. 

For 15 year old boys obsessed with hi-scores on video games it's probably mastery more than the others.

So, you want to get your kids to learn maths?

It's the headache faced by head teachers and maths departments across the country: raising the number of kids that get a C grade or better in their maths GCSE.

With the fabulous Dave Hyner from Stretch, I take my Mathemotivation workshops to schools in the west midlands. You can find out about our key presentation to students at http://www.stretchdevelopment.com/mathemotivation.

In the mean time, any information I collect about helping teenagers to get more out of maths I'll be posting here.

You're welcome to contribute!
