Unlocking Student Motivation

Struggling to understand why capable students shut down, procrastinate, or say "I don't care"? 

The answer isn't about lack of willpower; it's a gap in the psychological framework that fuels motivation. 

Join us at Unlocking Motivation: Why Students Struggle and How They Can Thrive, a 60-minute evidence-based webinar on February 26, hosted by ACDC.

This session bridges the gap between psychological theory and practical academic coaching, providing you with a clear framework to transform student engagement. 

Perfect for educators, academic coaches, tutors, and parents, this webinar will equip you with a diagnostic lens and a practical toolkit. Replace frustration with a clear framework, and leave with a downloadable "Motivation Blueprint" to use immediately. 

Space is limited. Reserve your spot today, and learn to help students move from being stuck to motivated.

You Will Walk Away From the Webinar Able to:

  • Apply the three-part psychological model (Self-Determination Theory) to quickly identify the root cause of a student's motivational block, which could be a lack of Control (Autonomy), Mastery (Competence), or Connection (Relatedness). 

  • Differentiate between the language of a fixed mindset ("I'm just bad at math") and a growth mindset that allows students to learn how to reframe conversations to build resilience. 

  • Implement two specific, structured coaching techniques: the "Micro-Start" Protocol and the "If-Then" Planning Strategy, designed to reduce overwhelm and build consistent action from the very first step. 

  • Create a targeted, first-step strategy for a student you support. 

Agenda Overview

  • Reframing the Problem: Move beyond the label of "lazy" to understand the "why" behind student behavior through an interactive case study. 

  • Psychology: Understand the Three Pillars of Drive and how Fixed vs. Growth Mindset acts as a filter on students’ motivation. 

  • Practice: Learn two concrete coaching tools, grounded in the Zeigarnik Effect and Implementation Intention research, and see them modeled in a live role-play exercise. 

  • Your First Step: Integrate your learning by building a personal action plan with our guided prompt.
