5.0 out of 5 stars Very good!, April 23, 2002
This book is a very good and comprehensive introduction to the psychology of learning motivation. The author does not only present different theories and research findings, she also extracts practical recommendations. Real life examples illustrate basic principles and procedures.
Altough this book is meant for graduate students and teacher, it can also be read by other people.
The recommendations are solidly based and can help teachers, coaches, trainers, and even parents to boost students' motivation to learn
