MOTIVATION
 Motivation
Motivation is an inner drive that
causes you to do something and
persevere at something. It
energizes you to do something. It is
the strength of the drive toward an
action. While ability refers to what
children can do, motivation refers
to what these children will do.
Motivation is the process that
initiates, guides, and maintains
goal-oriented behaviors. It is what
causes you to act, whether it is
getting a glass of water to reduce
thirst or reading a book to gain
knowledge.
-It involves the
biological,emotional, social, and
cognitive forces that activate
behavior.
-It is the driving force behind
human actions.
 Types of
Motivation

Intrinsic

Extrinsic
 Intrinsic Motivation

- It is an intrinsic when the

source of motivation is from
within the person
himself/herself. It is motivation
to engage in an activity for its
own sake (Schunk et al, 2008).
Example:
A student reads
pocketbooks because she
herself wants to read them
or because reading them is
in itself worthwhile and
enjoyable.
 Extrinsic Motivation

Motivation is extrinsic when

that which motivates a person
is someone or something
outside her.
Example:
When a student studies because she was told by her
teacher or because she is afraid to fail and her
parents will make her stop from schooling or
because it will lead to a good grade.
Extrinsic motivation is motivation
to engage in an activity as means
to an end. In the example, the
student studies to please the
teacher,parents or to get a good
grade. She does not study for the
joy of studying.
 Extrinsic Motivational
Factors
Rewards

Praises or words of
encouragements

Approval of significant others like teachers,

parents, or peer group - fear of
punishment, censure, and ostracism
The Role of Extrinsic Motivation
Initially, extrinsic motivation is necessary to
develop the love for learning among poorly
motivated students. If good grades, rewards,
praises or words of encouragement or fear of
failing grades can motivate unmotivated
students to study, why not? For as long as
students are hardly motivated, external
motivation in the form of rewards, incentives
or punishment play a significant role in the
development of motivated students.
After motivating the students to study
by way or reward, praise,
encouragement, and punishment,
hopefully the students develop the
genuine love for learning and becomes
intrinsically motivated in the process.
Intrinsic vs Extrinsic
Motivation (Assessment)
* Participating in a sport because
it's fun and you enjoy it.
* Pursuing a degree you are not
interested in because you want
to make your parents proud.
* Helping others because you hope
for praise from friends or family.
* Learning about personal
development because you want to
become the best version of
yourself.
