Learning & Development: Foundation Material for Educators

This book was required for online an online seminar at my local college. (City Colleges of Chicago). Although I have encountered some of the material before, I found that several of the case studies were informative. Although the material is geared towards college level students, I am able to apply the concepts to my adult education studenta (GED). It was worth the expense.

Motivation to Learn

Excellent read. To connect is to be able to engage and motivate with a new perspective. The book gives insight into what to do and how to do it. Very relevant and appropriate for many educational situations.
