Motivation has to do with thoughts and
feelings that we put in any teaching situation in order to provide our students
confidence to develop all the activities easier and faster but at
the end we will be collecting a really well done final work. There are several
factors that help us to achieve motivation. I am going to start first with the
interest in the target language culture. This factor is really
important because if we are interested in the culture of any country for
example, we are going to feel motivated to learn as much as possible about that
country. Also with motivation we can develop in learners Confidence,
and with the time students will be independent or autonomous
when they have to develop any kind of Activity.
Another important fact to take into account is the encouragement
and support from others. Is really necessary to provide feedback I all
activities that others develop or ask for feedback about our assignments in
order to improve them and correct mistakes. Sometimes coursebooks
include very interesting activities to motivate student and help them with the
learning process such as different warm- up activities or initial activities,
and one of the most important techniques to motivate students scientifically
tested are motivational videos with real situations or problems that people
overcome.
MOTIVATIONAL
VIDEOS
As a conclusion, something really important that I learned in this unit was
that motivation is connected with the culture of the language
that we are interested in. It is really important that teachers motivate
students all the time to avoid possible frustrations in the learning process. I
consider that I will apply all of this knowledge with mi students to avoid unmotivated
students in my class because if they are not interested in my subject, they
will get bad grades and the most important thing here is they can start to hate
the subject and this situation can cause a lot of problems in a near future.
