Sources of Motivation
Sources of Motivation
Source of motivation categorized as :
Intrinsic refers to motivation that source comes from inside
an individual rather than from any external or outside
rewards or punishments. For e.g. Self-satisfaction,
enjoyment of learning, and no need for incentives or
punishments; ‘He loves studying math’.
Extrinsic refers to motivation that source comes from
outside an individual. For e.g. Self-esteem, social factor,
academic degrees for promotions only; ‘He wants to get an
A+ on the test’.

How to Motivate Students?
Keller’s ARCS Model I
Keller’s ARCS model is a motivational design process that
includes
Attention: Surprise or uncertainty for active participation in
the learning process; stimulates curiosity by posing
challenging questions or problems. Informing learners of the
practical use of the e-Learning material in their daily lives.
Relevance: Use examples and concepts that are related to
the learner’s experience and values; use teaching strategies
that match the motive profiles of the students.
Confidence: Make learners aware of performance
requirements; provide multiple achievement levels that
allow learners to set personal goals; provide feedback that
supports student’s recognition of their abilities.
10 18
Keller’s ARCS Model II
Satisfaction: Use newly acquired knowledge or skill in
classrooms; provide feedback and reinforcements that will
sustain the desired behavior.
