This Weeks Powerpoint Lecture Is About Motivation As You Can See T This week’s PowerPoint lecture is about motivation. As you can see, there are many perspectives on what constitutes motivation and how to engage it. Most likely you can imagine many examples of motivating.

Here is a TEDx presentation that presents a very interesting perspective on the future: After you watch it (it's about 17 minutes long), then discuss the following questions: 1. What do you think of the video's basic premise? 2. What do you imagine the future of healthcare to be like? Here are some additional YouTubes to help spark your thinking:
