Student Motivation


I am not writing today. I am just posting this great information for my on future use
as a teacher.
This is taken from a powerpoint presentation prepared by Suzi Cox for EdPsych at UVU.
It comes from http://www.fehb.org/CSE/CCSEConference2012/wright_CCSE_Conference_Breakout_Motiv_Students_15_Mar_2012.pdf which at the moment is a non-working link.

Motivation Deficit 1: The student is unmotivated because he or she cannot do the assigned work.  (Readiness)
Motivation Deficit 2: The student is unmotivated because the ‘response effort’ needed to complete the assigned work seems too great. (Work avoidance)
Motivation Deficit 3: The student is unmotivated because classroom instruction does not engage. (Interest)
Motivation Deficit 4: The student is unmotivated because he or she fails to see an adequate payoff to doing the assigned work. (Value)
Motivation Deficit 5: The student is unmotivated because of low self-efficacy—lack of confidence that he or she can do the assigned work. (Belief)
Motivation Deficit 6: The student is unmotivated because he or she lacks a positive relationship with the teacher. (Belonging)
