Boosting and maintaining your motivation

For you?

Are you dealing with issues of study motivation? In these 4 workshops, we'll help you boost it! You'll be introduced to different aspects of motivation and we'll look at how you can get and stay motivated. Also, you'll be encouraged to reflect on your thoughts and behaviour regarding your study. You'll practice implementing the discussed techniques and theories in your personal preferences and situation.

These workshops are organized as a cycle of four. In each workshop we'll discuss a different aspect of motivation. The themes are comprised of closely connected aspects of motivation.
