Mr. Cain wants to elicit intrinsic motivations for his student to complete the final stages of their portfolio project during their senior year. Which of the following would be an effective technique?
  1. Reinforcing to students that their final grades depend on their portfolio
  2. Reminding students that summer school awaits those who do not complete their portfolio
  3. Providing reminders to students in the form of earlier assignments that expressed their intended result of the portfolio
  4. Providing students with examples of successfully completed portfolios
Explanation
Answer: C - Providing reminders to students in the form of earlier assignments that expressed their intended result of the portfolio. Having on hand a variety of motivational tools is essential for accomplishing goals, particularly in the final days of a long experience like a students’ senior year. Gathering statements from students can be an effective tool in which they remind themselves of their goals and objectives. Additionally, where a motivation is intended to be intrinsic the teacher has to find ways to access the student’s personal goals.
