About the book

"Understanding student and teacher motivation and developing strategies to foster motivation for students at all levels of performance are essential to effective teaching. This text is designed to help preservice and in-service teachers acquire the knowledge and skills they need to achieve these goals. The purpose of this new edition is the same as the first - to present information from the current knowledge base in motivation that offers hope and possibilities for educators (teachers, parents, coaches, administrators) to enhance motivation for achievement."--Jacket.

First sentence: Sockett's statement expresses a basic premise about the role of motivation: It leads to possibilities for fostering the development of students' potential or "life chances" (McInerney & Van Etten, 2001, p. x).
