Motivation in Tutorials: What to Do When No One Participates
This workshop focuses on how to actively foster motivation in tutorials: through activation techniques, appropriately tailored tasks, and a keen sense for participants’ signs of over- or under‑engagement. Together, we’ll look at common scenarios where motivation is lagging and gather simple yet effective ideas to re‑engage your group. You’ll leave with practical impulses and a toolkit of activation strategies to bring into your next session.
Learning objectives:
Participants will:
-
learn the key motivational factors for designing their tutorial sessions
-
accurately interpret and maintain emotional distance from seemingly rejecting signals from participants
-
be able to plan a method mix that fosters student motivation
