  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!)
I would create a classroom rewards program to get students interested in the immediate awards that follow success in following directions and achieving good grades from completing homework and assignments properly.
