Get ready for an insightful journey into the realms of homeschooling, motivation, and grading in education. Listen in as I reassure those of you battling with homeschooling anxiety that you're not alone, and there's no need to fear that you're ruining your child's life.
Discover the purpose and impact of grades, as we reference the work of John Taylor Gatto, a seasoned public school teacher. In this episode, I discuss motivation drawing upon the research of celebrated thought leaders Dan Pink, Dr. Mihaly Csikszentmihzlyi, and Alfie Kohn, and their revelations about how intrinsic motivation trumps extrinsic rewards when it comes to effective learning.
Get tips on how to foster intrinsic motivation in your children and how to make them understand that grades are feedback, not permanent markers. Remember, our kids should find their purpose in the work they do, and understanding and nurturing their intrinsic motivation can go a long way in achieving this. So tune in, it's an episode packed with valuable insights!
