That is absolutely great! Evaluating students' progress in a constructive manner not only helps them keep a track of their own success and identify the things they need to improve to become more successful, but also it allows the instructors to recognize how to maintain student retention.

I agree some of the challenges we face make it difficult to fit in motivational techniques but this course explained very simple methods that may be able to improve students motivation and therefore also help with retention.

This course like all of them not sure what to expect but then the material is so well written, relevant & useful. Motivation can be a challenge any day of the week, but I too use more one on one time with students to review their progress and try to make them more aware of their self perception.
