Lesson 3: Motivation: A Cross-Cultural Review

 

 
Lesson 3 Assignment: Slide Show Summarizing the Key Points of Chapter 11

"Motivation is defined here as students’ inclination, energy, and drive to learn, work effectively, and achieve to potential. Motivation is relevant to students’ interest in study, enjoyment of study, participation in class, and academic achievement (Martin, 2014, p. 80).".
Application to my future career: What I learned this week can easily be applied to my future career as a social sciences teacher in some capacity in a secondary educational setting is simple; I can use the knowledge of different motivating factors to engage with students and get their buy-in to my lessons. I can find what motivates them most and apply that strategy to get the best out of them.
