Abstract
This text looks at the issues involved in motivating teachers to teach well in the challenging environment of the modern university. It explores the factors that inspire, nuture and reward good teaching. Motivation is considered the key factor when it comes to commitment, preparation, sustained effort and performance in any work. This collection of essays examines personal motivation to teach - both internal and external - as well as organizational conditions such as job characteristics, leadership and student diversity, and system-wide conditions such as career phases, public policy, politics and the vagaries of the academic marketplace. It addresses the issues both theoretically and practically, drawing on the academic and hands-on experience of authors from many fields, including psychology, higher education, business, public policy and sociology.
