This is an excellent book and the title is self explanatory. I would highly recommend this as THE book on `motivating students to learn' without the need to look further. Its focus is `intrinsic motivation' which is the main thrust of learning in todays schools. For students studying Education, this is an invaluable text. It recognises the diversity of learners and is loaded with practical ideas on how to keep children and yourself, as an educator motivated. It is worth every cent!!

Good reference on how to motivate students to learn. Some technical terms were used though that made it difficult to read. Read it slowly. Recommended by ABCTE, an alternative route to teaching in USA. Open to international students.
One of the very best

Jere Brophy is simply one of the best researchers in this field, and this book typifies his effective use of research in classroom application, as well as his user-friendly prose. As a former practitioner in the high school classroom, and now an adult educator learning more about research and its incredible value, I am convinced that this book should be in the hands of every classroom teacher and those of other stakeholders, with time enough to read, absorb, and apply. Our students would be in far better places than they are now. Brophy combines compassion, wisdom, practicality in all his work.
