that arise
from outside

honors,
monetary
rewards,
medals and

benefits he will
derive from

motivation is better than
learning under extrinsic
motivation.

motivational aspect of learning.

important motivations for all
students.

made by the student can be
effective motivator.
Using learner interest as a motive is
important in classroom learning.

is better than learning under the
control of punishment.
Meaningful materials and tasks are
more successful motivators than
tasks the learner does not
understand.
Successful generally increases the
level of aspiration and achievement of
the learner, whereas failure tends to
lower the level of aspiration.

learner’s performance influence
the latter’s achievement.
Group competition, cooperation,
and support are more effective
motivators than individual
competition.
