The 11 self help activity PDF's are for students to refer to in conjunction with their results from the Swinburne Motivation and Engagement Survey that they completed in May, 2011. These activity sheets are designed to help students understand the 11 learning domains captured by the survey and to provide practical ways for students to address each of these important learning attributes. Students can choose to download only those activity sheets relevant to them or they can download all 11 self help sheet in one file. There is also a file containing a blank Motivation and Engagement Wheel on which students can plot their results from the survey and this will provide a useful graphical representation of their overall learning profile.
