Make class fun, informative, respectful and still maintain routine.
I learned it's important to put yourself in the students shoes.
Security is the student's belief about his or her ability to perform the tasks assigned and autonomy is the student's belief about the amount of control they have over the learning process. Providing these two things in the classroom is very important to student motivation.
types of motivators
allow interaction with students in laying out the course objectives
Intrinsic motivators are internal and extrinsic motivators are external every day factors that can include a reward or praise.
It was helpful to learn ways to build student motivation and learn what actually motivates students.
Allowing students to have input on lessons, assignments, pace, etc. gives students perceived control and autonomy over their learning builds motivation. Provide supportive and clear feedback to students and encourage questions.
There are two types of motivators: intrinsic and extrinsic. The first are the most effective and long-lasting. Intrinsic motivators imply that the activity itself is the reward.
I enjoyed learning about the importance of providing motivation for students.
