Ive learned useful techniques , to help with student empowerment
Extrinsic motivators serve a purpose until intrinsic motivation kicks in.
I learned the difference between intrinsic and extrinsic motivators and how we can use extrinsic motivators until better intrinsic motivators take over.
Both Intrinsic and extrinsic motivators can contribute to students success.
Learning different ways to keep students motivated
learning the difference between intrinsic and extrinsic motivation
I've Learned that Intrinsic motivators is vital to the students sense of security.
intrinsic motivation is the most important for student success.
Students are self-motivated (Intrinsic) as adult learners, the motivation is increased as opportunities are presented through course study. The grade is a great reward (Extrinsic); the knowledge is greater in that the newly acquired skills will be rewarded in the workplace often many times over both (Extrinsic and Intrinsic).
Strategies for supporting successes with intrinsic (internal) or extrinsic (external) motivators differ and can both be valuable to support with increasing security and autonomy in the classroom.
Extrinsic motivation is a good motivator, but intrinsic motivation will allow adult learners to complete their goals. It is they big WHY.
How to more effectively use extrinsic motivators to help the student develop their own intrinsic ones
Intrinsic motivation is stimulation to do something that is internal to person. Extrinsic motivation encourages people to do things they wouldn't normally. Rewards are usually the prize for extrinsic motivation. Extrinsic motivators usually bridge the gap for intrinsic motivation
Rewards (extrinsic) make them try hard, self motivation (intrinsic) makes them remember
In this module I learned about Intrinsic and Extrinsic motivation, as well as techniques to help motivate students with Extrinsic motivation that will lead to Intrinsic motivation.
an example of extrinisic motivation is rewards, but too many rewards is known as the overjustification effect
That extrinsic motivators can act as a bridge to intrinsic motivation. I will work to incorporate a few extrinsic motivators with the purpose of creating that bridge.
Extrinsic motivators, as mentioned, are often used to keep the audience engaged. However, it seems like a habit hard to remove. Intrinsic motivators are not easy to have. Many students go to night classes, and are tired, finding strategies to engage them is something important to think about.
Motivation is important in learning, which is why motivating students is essential.
