You will find the instruction is thorough and complete. These units are not brief, inconsequential attempts to brush aside the problems students encounter. On the contrary, the student with a serious difficulty will find the units provide all the information and activities needed to overcome the problem. At the same time, students with less serious problems will find the program operates easily to locate specific material and provide the information needed.
The program has an attractive, functional appearance, and has been tested extensively. You can demo the entire Motivation module by clicking on the "Demonstration" tab on the left.
