Kytle, Jackson,1941-

To want to learninsights and provocations for engaged learning /[electronic resource] :by Jackson Kytle. - Basingstoke :Palgrave Macmillan,2012. - 1 online resource (xix, 198)

PART I: TO WANT TO LEARN -- Problems and Possibilities -- Perspectives on Engaged Living -- PART II: BRAIN, MIND, AND BODY -- Neurobiological Systems -- Psychology of Involvement -- PART III: MOTIVATION, LEARNING, AND SCHOOL CULTURE -- Considerations for Better Learning -- Institutional Culture, Motivation and Learning -- Postscript.

Lack of learner motivation is the single greatest challenge before American schools and colleges. When students are self-motivated, they invest more and work harder at learning even if resources are inadequate. Jackson Kytle's provocative book argues that students and teachers waste time and energy because the conventional curriculum rests on flawed mental models. Hope for change requires a searching critique of modernity as well as expanded theories of human motivation and learning based on advances in neurobiology and cognitive studies.
