DNS – The Necessary Teacher Training College aspires to be Another Kind of School with relevant content and lucid methods. In the following we shall clarify in brief the pedagogical principles that lie at the heart of the school and run through its everyday of learning and teaching. This is the stuff that trains activist educators.
4. The programme generates motivation
Motivation is often seen as something coming from the outside. We in contrast see motivation as a product of the meeting between the human being and the outside world, and the need for change and action. Motivation is a structural part of the school’s everyday life, that lets you take in new stuff, try out and experiment with energy and a light head, processing attitudes and sharing exciting titbits of all kinds with your teammates.
