It’s challenging when you tell students  what is in it for them. Usually dealing with short term stressors, things like studying, paying bills, tomorrow’s class, and upcoming exams take precedence over long term goals. When I discuss why a student needs to know something, I usually start with an example of how something we cover in class relates to real life.
