EDUCATOR MOTIVATION
Although distinct and connected, engagement and motivation are sometimes misconstrued. A student's motivation is what propels them to take action. The visible activity or proof of that motivation is engagement. Engagement requires motivation, yet successful engagement may also encourage students to remain motivated in the future.
In my book The Independent Learner, I go through how students' desire and willingness to engage in learning are increased as a result of self-regulated learning practises because they foster feelings of autonomy, competence, and relatedness. Ryan and Deci's research indicates that the following three elements help motivate people:
A "feeling of initiative and ownership in one's acts" is what autonomy is.
Competence is a "feeling of mastery" and the conviction that an individual can.
Curiosity
The majority of bright kids care deeply about their education and do more than merely get good scores. It's crucial to have a sense of wonder for the world. It is an eagerness to comprehend. Consider me as an example; I devour all kinds of books. One of my favourite websites is Wikipedia. If I don't continue studying, I'll get bored and depressed.
a need for recognition
Regrettably, some kids utilise their academic failure to draw attention from their parents or teachers. Parents may not always offer children who are doing well the attention they require in today's fast-paced society. Youngsters who come home, finish their chores, do their schoolwork, and perform well in school might be disregarded because they aren't creating issues. Youngsters who misbehave or appear "helpless" in their academics frequently receive encouragement and attention. For kids, attention is a strong motivation. The behaviours that get a child noticed at home or at school should be reviewed on a regular basis.
Learning can be a painful and difficult process for kids with LD. LD and/or ADHD students frequently experience frustration in.
Rope of the Elephant
A man was approaching an elephant herd that was being restrained by a thin rope fastened to each animal's front leg. He was astounded that the enormous elephants aren't even attempting to cut the rope and liberate themselves.

He conveyed his anxiety when he observed an elephant trainer standing next to them. "We use the same size rope to bind them when they are very young and considerably smaller, and at that age, it's plenty to hold them," the trainer added.
They are taught as children that they cannot separate as adults. They never attempt to get free because they still think the rope can hold them.
