Sunday, December 20th, 2009, 1:30 PM - 4:00 PM

Speaker: John Gunning

John Gunning will briefly introduce tasks related to motivational theory based on Pintrich and De Groot, before taking participants through a receptive listening lesson focusing on task sequences and their effect on student learning/motivation.
