Celebrate Black Teachers and Students

This project is part of the Black History Month celebration because it supports a Black teacher or a school where the majority of the students are Black.

My Project

Whether we like it or not, humans need motivation. As we mature, most of us become intrinsically motivated. This means that we can motivate ourselves from within based on internal desires to do something — such as reading because you genuinely enjoy it and not just because you’re told to, or because you want to appear smart to your peers. This is a tough concept for little kids and even some adults. After all, many people would not work if it weren’t for what they receive at the end of the week: a paycheck. Although it’s good to encourage students to become intrinsically motivated, it’s also worth noting that extrinsic motivators are important, too. It will save your sanity to accept that external rewards such as money, grades, prizes, and praise will drive most of their behavior.
