Highly motivated students will always succeed but there are others who need to become motivated to increase their chance of success. This work brings together the experience of educators, trainers and students searching for ways of increasing student motivation. Links between motivation and training, learning and assessment processes are examined through case studies set in a broad range of subject discipline contexts.
