Sources of Motivation
Motivation comes from a number of sources. What works for one student has little or no effect on another. It is important to know what has meaning for your child. What fascinates him? What urges her on? How does he measure success? Has she given thought to what motivates her? Does he draw on what motivates him to plan for the future?
The list under the Sources of Motivation tab is not an exhaustive one, but it does cover the sources of motivation we often see with gifted students. We encourage you to comment on what is presented on these pages or to give us suggestions for exploring a source of motivation that is not on the current list.
