This document discusses various theories of motivation including instinct, drive-reduction, arousal, incentive, and cognitive approaches. It describes Maslow's hierarchy of needs which posits that lower physiological and safety needs must be met before higher needs of belongingness, esteem and self-actualization. Secondary drives like achievement, affiliation and power are also influential factors. Personality traits like locus of control and types A/B also impact motivation. The document provides an overview of major theories and factors that influence human motivation.
Achievement refers to competence (a condition or quality of effectiveness, ability, sufficiency, or success).
Motivation refers to the energization (instigation) and direction (aim) of behavior.
Thus, achievement motivation may be defined as
The energization and direction of competence-relevant behavior or
Why and how people strive toward competence (success) and away from incompetence (failure).
Achievement motivation is currently a highly active area of research, particularly in the fields of
Educational psychology,
Sport and exercise psychology,
Industrial/organizational psychology,
Developmental psychology, and
Social-personality psychology.

One can purchase a man's time, his physical presence, but can't buy his willingness to work. This can be achieved only through "Motivation".
Remember, that the ability to work is quite different from "the will to work". That's why, many talented person fail to succeed in life.
This chapter discusses the topic of motivation and the science behind it. It differentiates motivation from the concepts of morale and performance. It examines key motivation theories and what they say about what drives human behavior. The chapter identifies important lessons for pharmacists from each theory. Throughout, it describes misconceptions relating to things that motivate us and others and how misconceptions can lead to unintended behavioral consequences.

The French Revolution, which began in 1789, was a period of radical social and political upheaval in France. It marked the decline of absolute monarchies, the rise of secular and democratic republics, and the eventual rise of Napoleon Bonaparte. This revolutionary period is crucial in understanding the transition from feudalism to modernity in Europe.

2024.06.01 Introducing a competency framework for languag learning materials ...Sandy Millin
http://sandymillin.wordpress.com/iateflwebinar2024
Published classroom materials form the basis of syllabuses, drive teacher professional development, and have a potentially huge influence on learners, teachers and education systems. All teachers also create their own materials, whether a few sentences on a blackboard, a highly-structured fully-realised online course, or anything in between. Despite this, the knowledge and skills needed to create effective language learning materials are rarely part of teacher training, and are mostly learnt by trial and error.
Knowledge and skills frameworks, generally called competency frameworks, for ELT teachers, trainers and managers have existed for a few years now. However, until I created one for my MA dissertation, there wasn’t one drawing together what we need to know and do to be able to effectively produce language learning materials.
This webinar will introduce you to my framework, highlighting the key competencies I identified from my research. It will also show how anybody involved in language teaching (any language, not just English!), teacher training, managing schools or developing language learning materials can benefit from using the framework.
The Roman Empire A Historical Colossus.pdfkaushalkr1407
The Roman Empire, a vast and enduring power, stands as one of history's most remarkable civilizations, leaving an indelible imprint on the world. It emerged from the Roman Republic, transitioning into an imperial powerhouse under the leadership of Augustus Caesar in 27 BCE. This transformation marked the beginning of an era defined by unprecedented territorial expansion, architectural marvels, and profound cultural influence.
The empire's roots lie in the city of Rome, founded, according to legend, by Romulus in 753 BCE. Over centuries, Rome evolved from a small settlement to a formidable republic, characterized by a complex political system with elected officials and checks on power. However, internal strife, class conflicts, and military ambitions paved the way for the end of the Republic. Julius Caesar’s dictatorship and subsequent assassination in 44 BCE created a power vacuum, leading to a civil war. Octavian, later Augustus, emerged victorious, heralding the Roman Empire’s birth.
Under Augustus, the empire experienced the Pax Romana, a 200-year period of relative peace and stability. Augustus reformed the military, established efficient administrative systems, and initiated grand construction projects. The empire's borders expanded, encompassing territories from Britain to Egypt and from Spain to the Euphrates. Roman legions, renowned for their discipline and engineering prowess, secured and maintained these vast territories, building roads, fortifications, and cities that facilitated control and integration.
The Roman Empire’s society was hierarchical, with a rigid class system. At the top were the patricians, wealthy elites who held significant political power. Below them were the plebeians, free citizens with limited political influence, and the vast numbers of slaves who formed the backbone of the economy. The family unit was central, governed by the paterfamilias, the male head who held absolute authority.
Culturally, the Romans were eclectic, absorbing and adapting elements from the civilizations they encountered, particularly the Greeks. Roman art, literature, and philosophy reflected this synthesis, creating a rich cultural tapestry. Latin, the Roman language, became the lingua franca of the Western world, influencing numerous modern languages.
Roman architecture and engineering achievements were monumental. They perfected the arch, vault, and dome, constructing enduring structures like the Colosseum, Pantheon, and aqueducts. These engineering marvels not only showcased Roman ingenuity but also served practical purposes, from public entertainment to water supply.

3. Motivation
Factors that direct and energize behavior of
humans and other organisms
Motives - particular desired goals that underlie
behavior
Exemplified in behavior
Steer one’s choice of activities
Forces that direct future behavior
5. Instinct approach
Inborn pattern of behavior
Biologically determined not learned
Born with preprogrammed set of behavior
essential for survival
Provide energy that channels behavior in
appropriate directions
6.
7. Drawbacks
No agreement on nature & number of primary
instinct
18 instinct (McDougall, 1908)
5,759 instinct (Bernard, 1924)
Can’t explain development of specific behavior
pattern of a given species
However focus on evolution and genetic
inheritance
8. Drive-reduction approaches
Hull, 1943
Lack of some basic biological requirement produce a
drive to obtain that requirement
Drive- a motivational tension or arousal that
energizes behavior to fulfill some need
Primary drives: related to biological needs of body or
species as a whole; hunger, thirst, sleepiness, sex
Secondary drives: created by prior experience and
learning: achievement, affiliation, power
9.
10. Homeostasis
Try to satisfy primary drive by reducing the
need underlying it
Body has a tendency to maintain a steady
internal state
Operates through feedback loops bring
deviations in body function back to an optimal
state
11.
12. Drawbacks
Inadequate to explain behavior to maintain or
even increase level of excitement or arousal
Curiosity and thrill seeking behavior
13. Arousal Approaches
Try to maintain a certain level of stimulation
and activity
Increasing or reducing them as necessary
14.
15. Incentive approaches
Based on Operant Conditioning Theory
Stem from the desire to obtain valued external
goals or incentives
Desirable properties of external stimuli
account for a person’s motivation
Act as an anticipated reward or incentive
Punishment
16.
17. Drawbacks
Not a complete explanation of motivation
seek to fulfill needs even when incentives
are not apparent
Internal drives proposed by drive-reduction
theory work in tandem with the external
incentives theory to “push” and “pull”
behavior
18. Cognitive approaches
Product of people’s thoughts and expectations
– their cognition
Intrinsic motivation: participate for our own
enjoyment
Extrinsic motivation: for any concrete, tangible
reward
19. Maslow’s Hierarchy of Motivation
Motivation progresses up the pyramid from
the broadest, most fundamental biological
need to higher order ones.
Certain primary, lower order needs, at the
bottom level, must be satisfied before more
sophisticated, higher, order needs, in order to
work effectively.
20. Lower and higher order need
Basic physiological need
Safety & security
Then, need for love and belongingness
Strive for esteem, to develop a sense of self-worth
by knowing that other know and value
one’s competence, comes next.
Highest-level need, self-actualization – a state
of self fulfillment.
21. Hierarchy of Needs
Need Level Description Examples
Self-
Actualization
Realize one’s
full potential
Use abilities
to the fullest
Esteem
Feel good
about oneself
Promotions
& recognition
Belongingness
Social
interaction, love
Interpersonal
relations, parties
Safety Security, stability
Job security,
health insurance
Physiological
Food, water,
shelter
Basic pay level
to buy items
22.
23. Drawbacks
Unable to validate the specific ordering
Difficult to measure self-actualization
Important:
Highlights the complexity of human needs
Emphasizes that until more basic biological
needs are met, people will be unconcerned
with higher order needs.
24. Secondary Drive
Need for achievement: striving for success
Astable, learned characteristic in which a
person obtains satisfaction by striving for and
attaining a level of excellence.
25. People with high achievement need
Seek out situation to compete with standard to
prove success
Tend to avoid situation where success is easy
or unlikely
Take task of intermediate difficulty
Produce positive outcome in success oriented
society
Indicates future economic and occupational
success
26. Personality & Motivation
Internal Locus of Control
External Locus of Control
Type-A personality
Type-B personality
27. Need for Affiliation
Striving for friendship
Interest in establishing and maintaining
relationships with other people.
People with higher affiliation need:
Emphasize desire to maintain or reinstate
friendships
Show concern over being rejected by friends
Sensitive to relationships with others
More time with friends- gender difference
28.
29. Need for Power
Striving for impact on others
Atendency to seek impact, control, or
influence over others,
To be seen as a powerful individual
People with strong need for power:
Apt to belong to organizations and seek office
Work in professions that fulfill power need
Gender differences exist
