__**Welcome to the Great White Shark's Wookie! **__  This is a collaborative project to describe how different motivational learning theories apply in the real world.

First, we outline what motivation is and give some specific information for educators. Second, each of 5 main motivational learning theories is described, complete with further resources. Lastly, we explore how these theories are applied in each of 5 different professional areas. **Organizing Principle**: We decided to organize our project in the way described above because we felt it presented information in a clear way. We wanted someone to be able to use our portfolio as a teaching tool, but also as a learning tool. Presenting general background about motivation, then each theory one by one, then from applied perspectives, gradually moves the reader into deeper levels of understanding. We hope that our project will prove useful to those working in the field of motivation, and that the applied areas emphasize the link between theory and practice. __ Creators __ John Alunni Rhonda Bishop Catherine Cantrell   Anna Johnson   Mary Elizabeth Lucal ** Motivation in General ** **→**
