"Chapter Three"
"Chapter 3"
In chapter three Williams focuses on improving students motivation. Often in high school courses, and college courses students aren't motivated. I see the lack of motivation everyday when I'm tutoring students . If students aren't interested in the subject, then they are not motivated to do their work. Three years ago ,I took a history course that I absolutely hated, so when it was time for me to write the standard five paragraph essay on the California gold rush it was never wrecking.I also see this in composition courses students are just there because they have to be. They aren't there because they want write, they are just trying to take the required course do they can get through college. So when it's time to write the lack of motivation isn't there. This also happens in high school classes, teachers are teaching material that students are not interested in,or identify with.I understand that certain materials have to be taught, but something has to change, or else students are never going to be motivated to learn.
