Motivation for the Masses is a “coming of age” autobiographical account of a young poet growing and finding his voice in the world. The story is and will be told in a series of volumes. It is more of the story of the life of his poetry than of the life of the author; this along with the use of volumes creates a unique experience for the reader. The purpose of this work is to motivate readers to (1) appreciate their blessings, (2) learn from their mistakes, (3) think optimistically, and (4) use what they have been blessed with to be a blessing to others.
Inspirational prose mixed with magnificent images makes this calendar a must for any office.
On June 23, 2008, President George W. Bush nominated Ann Dunwoody as a four-star general in the US Army-the first time a woman had ever achieved that rank. The news generated excitement around the world. Now retired after nearly four decades in the Army, Dunwoody shares what she learned along the way, from her first command leading 100 soldiers to her final assignment, in which she led a 60 billion enterprise of over 69,000 employees, including the Army’s global supply chain in support of Iraq and Afghanistan.
What was the driving force behind Dunwoody’s success? While her talent as a logistician and her empathy in dealing with fellow soldiers helped her rise through the ranks, Dunwoody also realized that true leaders never stop learning, refining, growing, and adapting. In A Higher Standard, Dunwoody details her evolution as a soldier and reveals the core leadership principles that helped her achieve her historic appointment. Dunwoody’s strategies are applicable to any leader, no matter the size or scope of the organization. They include lessons such as “Never Walk by a Mistake,” a mandate to recognize when something is wrong, big or small, and to hold people accountable. Not only can this save billions for industry, it can
sometimes save the lives of soldiers and citizens. She also advises that “Leaders Aren’t Invincible-Don’t Try to Be”: to be our best, we have to acknowledge our worst. And she encourages readers to “Leverage the Power of Diversity” by creating teams of people from different backgrounds to provide a broad range of ideas and devise the best-informed decisions.
With these and other guiding principles, A Higher Standard offers practical, tactical advice that everyone can use to lead and achieve with maximum success.

What’s the place of fun in education? When students learn something new, they reach a learning edge, a threshold, where learning becomes uncomfortable because the material is difficult or beyond their understanding. To avoid this discomfort, some students can simply fall back on what they already know. This is a critical point, because if they do not move beyond the edge, they are stuck with both limited knowledge and a negative feeling about learning. Fun can be used as a motivating technique to help students get past this learning edge, and to meet an established goal or learning objective. Â
The Fun of Motivation: Crossing the Threshold Concepts is organized into two parts—Part I examines the theories behind motivation and fun in the classroom, and offers three instructional techniques that highlight their benefits. Part II is the application of the theories explored in Part I, and its six chapters each address one of the threshold concepts provided in ACRL’s Framework for Information Literacy for Higher Education. Each chapter contains three lesson plans addressing the threshold concept, one for each of the three fun instructional techniques. Assessment opportunities are provided throughout, with formative assessment strategies as well as summative assessments, including sample rubrics to apply to a range of student work. Each lesson plan ends with a section on possible modifications and accommodations and additional ideas on how to adapt the lesson for different student populations.
The threshold concepts within the Framework need to be facilitated with deliberation by librarians integrating them into their instruction sessions. Students must be motivated to learn these concepts that help them master skills across disciplines. The Fun of Motivation can help you explore, implement, and assess this powerful means of motivation.
This work was meant to be a PhD thesis to acquire the degree of Doctor of Philosophy in Applied Linguistics from the University of Essex in England. However, due to situations beyond my control, I was unable to complete it at the university of Essex. Unfortunately, I was in Libya during the uprising against Qaddafi in 2011 to renew my UK visa, but the UK embassy in Tripoli refused my visa application. I could have applied for an administrative review of this decision, but what made things worse, the war intensified and foreign embassies left the country. At that time the first draft of my dissertation was ready and needs the implementation of my supervisors” comments. I revised the first draft but I had no way of defending it in the UK even via video conferencing as the internet connection was intentionally cut by the regime. After the claimed liberation of Libya at the end of 2011, I contacted several universities in other countries, but they required that I start all over again (even those delivering distance learning). I was disappointed, and I had to abandon my four year work on a dusty shelf (and in a USB, of course). Fortunately, In 2016, while I was surfing the net, I found the self-publishing service on the createspace.com website. I have almost completed my first book on applied linguistics then. So I completed it and immediately got it published via their service. I published a second one in 2017 and began redrafting my PhD work so that I can publish it as book, and here it is published and has seen life after nearly six years of neglect. Thanks to Technology and those advancing it.
Many studies of teacher motivation have been conducted in different contexts over time. However, until fairly recently there has not been a reliable measure available to allow comparisons across samples and settings. This has resulted in an abundance of findings which cannot be directly compared or synthesised. The FIT-Choice instrument offers the opportunity to examine motivations across settings. The various studies in this book suggest that people who choose teaching as a career are motivated by a complex interaction of factors embedded within communities and cultural expectations, but seem generally to embrace a desire to undertake meaningful work that makes for a better society. Unlike some careers, where rewards are in the form of salary and status, by and large these factors are not strong drivers for people who want to become teachers. They want to work with children and adolescents, and believe they have the ability to teach.
