the reasons why  motivation of learners should be part of teacher's job
127268
Interesting question!  On one hand, the teacher is responsible for doing all in his power to make the course material as interesting as possible.  He should be well schooled in educational methods and strategies, and should constantly be seeking to learn more and better ways to impart information.  Careful forethought and planning on the instructor's part will result in many ideas that will make class more interesting and appealing to the reluctant learner.\n\nThat said, however, it is manifestly impossible to enter a pupil's heart and make him want to learn.  Part of being human is to have free moral choice, and some simply choose not to learn.  It is not possible to reach everyone, regardless of what the hopeful pundits may claim.  Even Jesus Christ, the Master Teacher, had one disciple that positively refused to accept His teaching.  \n\nI suspect that laziness on the part of the evaluator has something to do with blaming the teacher for the lack of motivation on the student's part.  It's easy just to say, "If the student hasn't learned, the teacher hasn't taught."  However, as with most things, the matter is far more complicated than that.  The evaluator (whether it be a school administrator, parent, board member, or politician) needs to take the time to check the teacher's methods and procedures.  If deficiencies are found, these can be addressed.  But let's not forget that it's the student's job to learn just as it's the teacher's job to teach.  Without the cooperation of both, learning cannot and will not take place.  And to try to fix unilateral blame for that failure may be an attractively simple option, but it is simply not realistic.

As with any profession, sometimes there are hindrances to completing a job.   Sometimes other students cause so much trouble working on such assignments, that the teachers get disgusted and  good kids like yours are pushed aside\n( And, yes, there are teachers who lose interest in what they've assigned, or they are lazy.  It is unprofessional. ) I suggest the next time your daughter gets a big assignment, you contact the teacher and ask what standard it meets, what is the purpose, when is it due and what per centage of her grade is it. Also, if this is a pattern of her teacher(s), speak to the teacher or the principal.  Good luck.

Being a teacher myself....I would want to see why it is important, who should do it, who should you respect, how you show respect, and how if you show me respect, I'll show you respect!!  Hope this helps.

more motivational for subordinates

I think that's correct. To attract good people in any profession; the pay has to be good. Lots of schools will want the best teachers, and will be prepared to pay a decent salary. In order to keep the good teachers, the current school will have to provide a good salary which matches the decent salary provided by the other school - hence the statement is proved true.

The question is far from clear.  I assume that English is not your native language.\n\nIf your question has to do with how to motivate employees, then it needs to be focused more as employee motivation is the topic of 1000's of books and not just one question.\n\nIf I were to try and reduce everything into a few phrases then I would refer you to Maslow's pyramid of needs and how you as an employer or boss can satisfy one or more of these needs.\n\nSee this site for starters: http://www.ship.edu/~cgboeree/maslow.html

As an educator a teacher should teach the required materials on subjects, aid in teaching the next level of social skills(even if the parents haven't done their part),boost all students egos and desire to learn, council as needed, recognize problems with emotions,physical,abuse,educational,financial or any other problem a student may have that is keeping them from performing their best and be on good terms with the child so the teacher may have a positive discussion and help with the problem or give suggestions for ways for the parents to get the child help, and keep up with all fund raiser money, notes and calls to parents, homework, grading,lesson planning, after school activities leader, and be cheerful and always present. As learning from the student a teacher must be open to new ways to communicate with students and learn new ways to teach as well as make students behave.The teacher will improve by dealing with many student conflicts/issues whether or not they are educational or affect educational purposes.The teacher will try methods that may work with one class but not the next and have to figure out how to meet the next classes needs.Over trial and error the teacher will learn how to meet the needs of most students. The teacher is also attending classes to keep up with the states requirements and/or to recieve their masters or above or administration degree or to teach other classes.The teacher is a constant learner and teacher. Teaching isn't in the classroom only and learning doesn't only happen from a desk.They are both ongoing and a responsibility a person must accept as a teacher.

Speaking as a teacher, failure is not something we prefer to practice but it is a necessary part of teaching.  If everyone passed whether they did the work or not, there would not be starndards so why learn at all?  Teaching is changing to the extent there is a movement not of failure but not letting students go on until they master a concept or level.  You pass when you pass,  Unfortunately this is not practical in very large systems or schools and there needs to be a remediation level for students who refuse to work.  When i went to grade school it didnt matter how long you sat in a class you were not going to go to the next grade until you passed.  There was very little failure because every year there seemed to be one student held back who was of course older and larger, and obviously someone who failed.  The current system is to pass students socially to avoid some of that type of social stigma in grade school.  In high school students are not given their credits until they earn them.

Unless you are limited with your resources, why not just let them have what they want - there would be sufficient to go round. Once one cild <lol> has grabbed everything in his excitement, they will soon calm down once they start work and then you can share the stuff round or ask them to do it. \n\nIf you're limited, why not dish out the stuff or get them to pick something they want in turn? That way you could see their choices as they go and maybe even asked why they have chosen that/those particular thing(s). Make a nice talking point wouldn't it?\n\nAnd I'm not even a teacher! lol.\n\nGood luck.

ask them nicely to demonstrate for you, so that you get a better idea of what exactly they want from you. if they can't, i don't think they have a clue what teaching is about. if they do a good job, then just copy it.

Homework is an essential tool to re-inforce what you are learning in class.  Some teachers overdo it, as if they are the only teacher you have, but that doesn't negate the need for homework.\n\nHomework also gives you an opportunity to learn and hone study skills which you will need in H.S. and college.\n\nHomework also helps to instill a good work ethic which will serve you well your entire life...provided you take advantage of it.

La motivation joue bien évidemment  un rôle essentiel sur le processus d'acquisition des connaissances de l'apprentissage.\nL'affectif et le comportemental découlent et dépendent de la motivation.\nIl  est certain que si l'on n'a pas envie de faire, on ne fait pas ou alors très mal.\nL'échec n'est pas vraiment la résultante du manque de compétence, mais uniquement du manque de motivation.

Here's your argument for your debate:  Homework serves a valuable purpose in education.  Not only does it allow students to practice what was taught in class, thereby solidifying concepts, but most importantly it teaches responsibility.  Best given as a few target exercises rather than pages and pages of mindless drill, homework is a way of teaching students responsibility when the teacher is not there to "make them learn".  As a teacher, I often tell parents of the non-doers that I really don't care if they complete the homework or not- however, try telling the bank you "forgot" or "didn't have time" or "didn't understand" your car payment (/utility bill/cable bill/rent/etc.) and see how well that flies.  Kids and parents understand when I put it that way. No questions are asked when you don't send in your car payment- they just take away your vehicle.

my initial response was money, but i was wrong. people take it for granted, the more money they make. what motivates employees is satisfaction in their job, doing a job they like and is rewarding, feeling a sense of accomplishment, having other people rely on you and appreciate you. and  a little more than a pat on the back

Absolutely BUT rewards shouldn't always be a toy or sticker or something material. Students shouldn't come to expect a prize for doing what they're supposed to be doing. As students move into higher grades material rewards should be reserved for BIG achievements but verbal praise should be given constantly. Verbal praise should also address a student's effort. ie "I can tell that you worked really hard on this" or "You effort is really paying off." This way, students are being reinforced on the idea that their effort directly correlates to their grades.

Depends on the like though! I've aways wanted my teachers to like me because i was good at my work,but teachers are human, we tend to see them as walking encyclopedias - it would be good to know them as they really are people with feelings, family, dreams like everyone else too don't you think?

Learning is essential to proper development and to living in this wicked world.  Teaching must be done for one to learn.
