I learned to motivate not only students but also myself.

I have learned that it's important continue to encourage your students instead of telling them, "You are falling behind on your assignments and need to catch up." You should you should say, "Hey, I see that you are behind on your assignments. Is there anything I can help you with?" Or, "Let's meet at the end of class and come up with a plan to help you get to where you need to be."

I find that it is important to know that every student is not the same. it is imperative to learn my students and get to know them so that I can cater to their needs. By knowing what goal that they are trying to achieve, I can also incorporate that in the lesson so that it's relatable to them. 

I believe both are crucial and tend to focus on the outcome. while it's true: assessing intrinsic strengths helps us give an idea how to supplement, my opinion is that extrinsic motivation can give more favorable results. 

I always try to throw softball questions until everyone is comfortable with the activities and methods I am trying to implement. 

You as an instructor contribute to both intrinsic and extrinsic motivating factors.

Identify the goals and reason for attending the course.

learning your students and how to base your course lay out that would provide the best success for your students.

At this stage of the course I learned the importance of knowing the objectives of my students and their needs since knowing them well and identifying them can help me develop strategies that help them when it comes to understanding complex classes
