A teacher should create a classroom culture where students' motivation to learn is primarily focused to :

  • A.understand and appreciate the process of learning.
  • B.prove their worth to others.
  • C.avoid shame of appearing ignorant.
  • D.compete with each other.

Answer: A

Students' motivation should mainly be focused to understand and appreciate the process of learning.

This is intrinsic, mastery-oriented motivation: learners study because they want to understand and improve, and they value the process, including mistakes. Such motivation lasts longer and leads to deeper learning than motivation tied to external judgments.

The other three are performance-oriented or fear-based motives. Proving one's worth to others and avoiding the shame of appearing ignorant make learners anxious and unwilling to take risks, and constant competition turns learning into a contest that discourages cooperation.
