Q 6


6) How does motivation tie in to student success in the classroom? Give 3 examples of strategies to motivate today's students.

A: Motivation is extremely important for student success but teachers have to be cautious not to over reward because student might not learn to work without a reward and most often the real world doesn't offer rewards. Some suggested strategies to motivate students are to assign tasks that are neither too easy nor too difficult, Create an atmosphere that is open and positive and the most interesting one I found was Avoid creating intense competition among students.
