- W9867733 abstract "Motivating students can be a difficult task. However, is one that must be mastered in order to provide a successful education. So often our students express that they are not interested in what is being taught in classroom, but in actuality this may not be case. Lack of interest may not be problem. Rather, content is not presented in a manner that is interesting to students, or in ways that keep attention of learners. As educators, is important to understand that feeding students information is not teaching, nor does promote motivation. If learners are not motivated, they will not be willing to learn. So pressing inquiry is: How do we motivate students and then keep them motivated? When we motivate students, focus should be on intrinsic motivation. This is form that takes place within and is not altered by outside influences. Granted, educators are not able to adjust that which is intrinsic, however, they can act as promoters. Is Your Class Fun? Interest and enjoyment was number one reason why high school students participated in sports, fine arts, academic students organizations (e.g. FFA), and community and church groups (Stoller & Knobloch, 2005). Ask students why they enjoy an activity, and you'll probably hear, fun! Whether or not learner is enjoying task, mere act of having fun is an intricate part of both enjoyment and intrinsic motivation. When learners are involved in activities that are fun, they experience a level of enjoyment that surpasses other levels. This is known as optimal enjoyment. Motivation would not be a problem in most classrooms if educators were able to guide students to this realm of enjoyment where learning was fun. Intrinsically, when students are at this level of enjoyment, it's processed as pleasure. Making learning pleasurable for students is hard work, but not impossible. What is Flow? The idea of experiencing this optimal level of enjoyment is best explained through research of Mihaly Csikszentmihalyi and his theory of flow. Flow is the state in which people are so involved in an activity that nothing else seems to matter; experience is so enjoyable that people will do even at great cost, for sheer sake of doing it (Csikszentmihalyi, 1990, p. 4). This basically implies that when an individual is in flow of something, at that precise moment in time nothing else matters because they are so intrinsically engaged in activity or task. An example of this can be observed with athletes and artists as they are considered to be in zone where all of focus is on completing a goal. It's at this moment of flow that individuals are said to function at their fullest capacity. During this time, individual in not concerned with gratification because level of enjoyment serves as ultimate reward (DeCharms, 1968; Deci, 1975). Achieving flow in an instructional setting can be accomplished by using some instructional strategies that will help student get caught up in learning experience. A few strategies are outlined for agricultural educators to create optimal learning experiences for their students. Engage All Learners-A Prerequisite/or Flow Educators need to remember that all students are not capable of learning via same medium. There are times when students' learning styles may appear similar, however, they are not same. Once teachers have uncovered learning styles of their students (e.g., visual, audio, or kinesthetic learners), they must then establish a set of characteristics that encourages enjoyment of activities. In order to do so, teachers must identify activities that would help students learn and create an enjoyable learning experience. When this is accomplished, is time to create flow. Concentration, Interest & Enjoyment Creating flow is relatively easy once an educator has created a learning environment that will engage multiple intelligences and modalities of learners. …" @default.
