Motivate your students by offering instructional experiences within their interest areas! Based on the idea that children learn best when they are interested in the topic, the six interest assessment tools that comprise the Interest-A-Lyzer Family of Instruments help educators identify each student's unique interests. In this manual, Dr. Joseph Renzulli discusses the importance of assessing student interests and provides suggestions for administering and interpreting these instruments in the school setting. Sample pages from each interest assessment tool are included in the appendix. Class sets of 30 instruments are sold separately.

Joseph Renzulli is a professor of educational psychology at the University of Connecticut, where he also has served as the director of the Renzulli Center For Creativity, Gifted Education, and Talent Development.
