Case: Student Motivation
I teach foreign language and for two of my three courses there is no final required at the end of the year and no Student Learning Objective. Students know that all they have to do to complete the class, is pass. Students will therefore take their grade of a C, even when given the opportunity to improve it, and move on. What can I do to increase the student's intrinsic motivation? How can I encourage them to try harder- to push for an A or B instead of a C?
Solution: (Rates are posted for this solution!)
This is not merely your class structure, this is in general when it comes to certain cultural climates. I believe the only way to intrinsically motivate students is to teach the meaning of learning and the use of practicing for success. You may also want to show them how the C grade affects their GPA and the cons of having a low GPA in terms of college and secondary options. Long term connections that show students why we learn and achieve is important. Have them do a project on the quality of life they would like to have and show them the tools needed to get it. Many times students do not recognize what they need to get to places they may have never dreamed of until someone opens their minds to the possibilities. Dreams will cause people to become more motivated... hopelessness will cause them to be complaisant. |
