What's my motivation? How to achieve job satisfaction

“What’s my motivation” is a self-contained classroom topic that will help students to explore their own motivation and how this affects their career choices. Students will be asked to identify motivating and demotivating factors and how this could affect their attitude and achievement at work. Understanding motivation is essential to making good career choices.
This topic supports the learning outcomes in the Association for Careers Education and Guidance (ACEG) framework for career and work-related learning at Key Stage 3 and provides good evidence of lesson planning. Two files are included with this topic. The first file is a lesson plan, worksheets and suggested running order for the activities. The lesson plan also includes differentiated learning goals, reflective questions and a “before and after” review of learning relating to this topic. The second file is a slide show presentation which can be used with a whiteboard or pc/laptop and projector, to add structure to the lesson for students. The slideshow has the same running order as the lesson plan, and includes engaging and high quality images to add visual appeal.
