Motivational Practice provides a rich account of how teachers who are successful in motivating their students negotiate classroom relationships, and create engaging learning opportunities. It sheds light on how motivation emerges through teacher?student relationships, and in classroom activities.Drawing on examples of motivational practice from the Motivational Teaching in Swedish Secondary English (MoTiSSE) project, the book will help in-service and preservice teachers of English to develop perspective-taking skills that can enable them to teach in ways that students find meaningful, relevant and engaging.
This book offers a wonderful combination of a comprehensive survey of motivation theory and a rich collection of practical classroom activities ? in short, everything you ever wanted to know about motivation! The accessible style and the reader-friendly structure is the icing on the cake. All in all, this is a very useful teacher?s resource ? highly recommended.

This is a rare book, presenting examples of excellent English teaching from real school classrooms and discussing them with reference to the latest theories about learner motivation. Lärare i Engelska i Sverige, ni är lyckligt lottade!
