Clearly articulate learning goals.


Students will be more motivated to work if they know what goals they are working
towards. Thus, it is a good idea not only to articulate goals for the course, but also
for specific lectures, discussions, and assignments. For example, before beginning a
teaching lesson, an instructor might write on the board the skills, knowledge, and
perspectives students will gain that day, for example, when the class is end,
students should be able to sole multiplication of fraction using appropriate method.
Articulating learning goals is important for a variety of reasons, but it plays a key role
in motivation by showing students the specific value they will derive from a
particular course, unit, or activity.

Connect to students personal interests.


Motivation is often enhanced when instructors connect course material to
students personal interests. For example, a chemistry professor might link a
lesson on chemical transformations of carbohydrates to students interest in
cooking. A history instructor might motivate interest in colonial history by
showing how it helps to explain contemporary geopolitical conflicts or
environmental problems. Similarly, well-constructed courses that tap into issues
that are important to students (e.g., The History of Rock n Roll, Philosophy and
the Matrix [a popular film], The Statistics of Sexual Orientation) can capitalize on
students motivation without sacrificing intellectual or disciplinary rigor.
