Just completed ED112 Security and Autonomy of which motivation was a major piece of the subject. The importance of motivating the students in the course is unspoken. The course reviewed what motivates and to what degree and how the adult student perceives different events within their learning process. I feel personal motivators do get the students to our classroom and if we hit on the structured points reviewed in this course in our classrooms of security, effective / enriching class content and engaging classroom activities and autonomy in our learning environments, we will not only, as instructors, satisfy our objectives to educate but also fulfill the adults students quest to better themselves with newly learned /achieved knowledge and skills.
