Motivation to learn Sample Clauses

Motivation to learn. In X.X. Xxxxxxx‟s opinion, the intrinsic motivation is the most important for adult learners. As mature people, they become more motivated by various internal incentives, such as need for self-esteem, curiosity, desire to achieve, and satisfaction of accomplishment. The mentor-teacher‟s awareness of the principles of adults‟ learning is particularly important because he/she normally works with children and youngsters. The attitude to educating the mentee should be different. Pedagogy of today is more and more focused on methods, which stimulate initiative and independence of the learners. In those cases attitudes to children‟s and adults‟ education is similar. In all respects, our intention was to contrast the two approaches of traditional pedagogy and andragogy to stress the most important factors of adult education that the mentor- teacher should be aware of.
