    I would have loved this when I was in the classroom!!! Our principal used to make home visits, but some parents felt this was really intrusive (understandably); this sounds like a great easy & quick to implement intervention.

    In this talk, Csikzentmihalyi goes further than describing flow as an important experience for intrinsic motivation. Is happiness a state of flow too? It is an interesting perspective though I'm sure it's not the only perspective.
