For the last week and a half we&#8217;ve been dealing with two main ideas&#8212;Aristotle&#8217;s Rhetorical triangles, and looking at the Early Colonial period of American literature. We&#8217;ve used one to practice the other, with my kids struggling&#8212;and [...]]]></description>

A group of teachers was discussing Daniel Pink&#8217;s TED Talk on motivation, in which he argues that the key factors in motivation are autonomy, mastery, and purpose.
