Generally speaking, motivation is what energizes, maintains, and
controls behavior. As such, it is clear why it plays an important role in the university. Because to make things that you want to do or
achieve happen, you need motivation. Therefore, motivation is needed by everyone so it is what drives you
towards a goal, gets you up in the morning, and keeps you working through a
task, determined to succeed when things get tough. This essay will demonstrate the reasons why
lectures are responsible to motivate students to learn.
To begin with, lectures can influence others,
especially the students. Because they have more experiences and higher
education than the students. That is why, when lectures speak up, people can
easily believe and get the point. Moreover, students need to have motivation in
order to understand and get the idea from lectures.
In addition, motivation is not just all about
giving students speech in boring and formal way. But giving more innovative and
creative assignment can lead them to have more spirit, passion and improve
their willingness of study. Because the regular assignment was too often and ordinary.
Finally, Lecturers play big role in students’ learning activities so
motivation from them is needed. Because more motivations can
lead to increased productivity and allow students to expand their abilities
more. Just like a quote from Mustafa Kemal Ataturk “A good teacher is like a
candle-it consumes itself to light the way for others”.
To sum up, although Self-willingness is the basis in learning
process, lectures should also be aware of the
important role of motivations. That is
why I totally agree with the statement above.
