MOTIVATING STUDENTS
Abstract
Just being aware of the dimensions of motivation is not enough. As an educator, you may have students who display weak motivation and you will need to use a variety of strategies within your classroom to engage and motivate them. Although all dimensions of motivation are intertwined, depending on the student and the given activity or situation, one dimension of motivation may be more prominent than the others. Some research-based strategies for motivating students to learn can be: become a role model for student interest; get to know your students; use examples freely; use a variety of student-active teaching activities; set realistic performance goals; place appropriate emphasis on testing and grading; be free with praise and constructive in criticism.
