Case: Unmotivated Student
I have a student who refuses to take any type of assessment seriously, not to mention his lack of effort in the classroom daily. I have called home several times, he has seen the counselor, he has a BIP, but he still will not take a test seriously. He bubbles in answers or circles them and then lays his head down. No amount of prodding, bribing, encouragement has helped yet. What haven't I tried that might help? How do I motivate him?
Solution: (Rates are posted for this solution!)
Hi,
I probably have more questions than solutions, but here are some things to think about: I am curious if the student is unresponsive to regular classroom activities and instruction. Does this occur only in testing situations, and if so, does the student appear anxious to tests? Has a FBA been completed, does the BIP need revising, and has a motivation inventory been completed on him? If any of these things have not been completed, I would start there. Is there an alternative way to assess the student? Have the student orally give answers, complete a performance assessment, or use existing work to make him successful on assessments to build his confidence. |
