Describe your learners' motivation toward the goal or standard you have selected. You may choose to interview or survey your learners to obtain this information. However, if you can explain the motivation in a narrative form, that is acceptable. If the content in this section is based on your experience as an educator, indicate that fact. If you create a survey or interview questions to collect this information, list the survey in an appendix. Motivational Strategies Describe motivational strategies you will use to address motivational challenges identified in the preceding section. Your strategies should be described in the context of John Keller's ARCS model for motivation. Use the ARCS categories and general language when you describe your strategies. Learner Characteristics Identify a broad range of learner characteristics and include supporting data from the target learners. You may list any characteristics, which you feel are important. You must include data from your learners on Gardner's multiple intelligences. You must describe how culture and/or ethnicity might influence the target learners, task, and learning situation. This is also where you will need to include three, original research articles to support the strategies that you are going to use to meet your learners needs in terms of their culture and ethnicity. If you create a survey or test to collect this information, list the survey in an appendix. If you collect this data from reports or information already available to you, simply explain where you obtained the data. Accommodations In this section you will identify specific appropriate accommodations for learners with special needs. You will analyze and recommend appropriate technology resources to enable and empower learners with diverse backgrounds, characteristics, and abilities for the given learning situation.

The accommodations you list must be accepted practice in the field of education and cannot be based on your own experience. This is also where you will need to include three, original research articles to support the strategies that you are going to use to meet your learners needs in terms of their special needs. Note that blogs and personal web pages are not credible references.
