Spotlight on Faculty
Diversity and Motivation
Margery B. Ginsberg, College of Education Associate Professor, and Raymond J. Wlodkowski have co-authored a recent publication, Diversity and Motivation: Culturally Responsive Teaching in College.
The authors argue that in order to strengthen intrinsic motivation among diverse student groups, educators must understand the role of culture in teaching and learning. Using an understanding of how to teach in ways that promote respect and relevance, this new edition of a classic work provides frameworks and strategies to help faculty become more effective teachers of all students. This book is an invaluable resource for faculty across disciplines as well as in two and four year institutions. It includes innovative approaches to syllabus construction, lesson design, and faculty development in both conventional and intensive learning formats.
“There is a great need for deeper understanding and conceptualization of student motivation across diverse groups to change the consciousness of educators and, ultimately, society. For those of us who teach, and face that need daily, this work illuminates and inspires.”
—Ed Taylor, Vice Provost and Dean, Undergraduate Academic Affairs, University of Washington
“No one knows more about creating intrinsically motivating classroom environments in diverse settings than Margery Ginsberg and Raymond Wlodkowski. Every educator who wants to engage students fully for success should read this book!”
—Beverly Daniel Tatum, President, Spelman College
