Motivating Others

Post what you've learned about this topic and how you intend to apply it. Feel free to post questions and comments too.

Fostering intrinsic motivation in both learner and educator involves creating an environment that promotes learning that open, clear, purposeful, and correlated to individual growth. Embracing individualism, quality feedback, and learning or development opportunities helps reinforce intrinsic motivation. I can apply this by fostering a culture of collaboration while aligning both my personal and professional goals with school standards.

Intrinsic motivation  should be the main goal of educators for all their students.  Start with why did you get into nursing?  All students share their responses.  Share the rationale & purpose of everything we teach.  Students need to be satisfied & happy with this career choice to stay motivated to continue on.

The most important motivators in life are having an intimate connection between what you do and knowing how it matters to others. So, purpose and meaning in the tasks that somebody are engaging in are very important motivators.

The fact that purpose must be one of the main drivers to continue on with motivation. external factors is not enough and not something I always knew how to address. Autonomy and challenges being things that can help with this 

I have learned that motivating the students by reminding them of the great reward at the finish line consistently will assist them through the challenging journey.  Some things we have control over and some things we do not have control over.  We can take control over the things we do have control over.  This advice also motivates me as an Instructor.

Motivating students and faculty members requires fostering an environment where autonomy, purpose, and growth are a focal point.  Empowering people to take ownership of both learning and teaching are lessons that will last a lifetime.

To motivate others you need to be passionate about what you are trying to motivate them in. I like to motivate through inspiration. Inspiring others to learn and grow both at school and on their own. Almost the way a toddler learns by asking why, I encourage my nursing students to inquire why something occurs in our body, perhaps why the drug effects the patient the way it does due to all the comorbidities of the patient. its ok to ask questions as a nursing student, this facilitates learning because the more information they learn because they wanted to know it , I believe the more they will retain 

Break down intrinsic motivators and reinforce them with students. 

The difference between intrisic and extrinisc value, how to motivate my students to achieve their goals.

I learned to motivate not only students but also myself.

This topic has made me realize that motivating others is not just about offering rewards but creating an environment where individuals feel connected to their work, capable of succeeding, and aligned with a larger, meaningful purpose.

You must use both intrinsic and extrinsic motivation for students.

It is important to give others autonomy so they have some control over what they do. It will promote mastery and a desire to get better over time.  

I believe that I have the energy and passion to motivate my students.  If they learn one topic, I have succeeded with them. Engaging the students and assisting as needed to help them with their success.

aside from having just a good attitude, i can relate with student's personal job experiences to help them to see the practicality in what were learning also let them share as well on how it relates. 

i learned that i can find the streanths in each student and work on supporting that  so that they may build on it and creat better learniing experiences.

Great reminders!

I learn how to properly motivate students.

wHEN STUDENTS SEE THE "LIGHTBULB" GO ON, IT REALLY MOTIVATES THEM.  POSITIVE REINFORCEMENT IS ESPECIALLY HELPFUL
