The teacher uses an understanding of individual and group motivation and behavior to create a learning environment that encourages positive social interaction, active engagement in learning, and self-motivation.
Motivation plays a key part in getting the students involved in the lesson.
It makes them have an urge to learn and also do their classwork. In my class, some of my students have a negative attitude towards math, so I have done everything that I can, to make them realize that math is fun. I have started by having each of my classes compete against one another for a party. The goal is the first class that reaches 300 points will receive a cupcake or a pizza party at lunch. So everyday that the students come in, they have their materials ready and are ready to start on the problems of the day.
