Motivation Through - Hope, Meaning and Challenge

"Always give your best and be relentless in your pursuit, believe in yourself and have faith in your capabilities. Even if you fail, remember the certain way to succeed is to always try one more time; as what you plant now you shall harvest later." - Cpt. Nitish Kumar Raghuvanshi, President PESF  

Teachers know that engaging and inspiring students initially requires building positive relationships and creating relevant learning experiences. Students who are motivated, challenge themselves and see meaning in what they learn progress faster and at high levels, even when they start with knowledge or skill gaps.

Yet other key actions also matter: setting realistic expectations, creating a needs-satisfying classroom, and teaching students to self-evaluate and self-moderate. Students who are motivated and see meaning in what they learn progress faster and to higher levels, even when they start with knowledge or skill gaps. In fact, focusing on motivation and meaning is a classroom strategy that is often underutilized.
So it is for us to  take a look at how teachers can spark inner motivation in all students by providing them with an environment to constantly challenge themselves and hone their skills and also devising a strategy to engage those who are disengaged from school and enabling those who strive to succeed; thus building a foundation to create meaningful connections that get students excited about learning and Inspired for Being Better.
