Motivation;
Using Google, I searched the word
“motivation” and the definition was, “the reason or
reasons one has for acting or behaving in a particular way.” I also searched using the
“Free Online Dictionary” (Link: http://www.thefreedictionary.com/motivation)
and I found the following as the definition:
a. The act or process of motivating.
b. The state of being motivated.
2. Something that motivates; an
inducement or incentive.
The
vocabulary word this week is motivation, which relates to the previous blogs 3A
& 3B. Intrinsically motivated
behaviors are those in which a person is participating in the activity for
their own enjoyment. Motivation
determines if a person will finish an activity or assignment or reach a
goal. For example, it is important to be
motivated to graduate from college and start a career. Flow can relate to motivation because a
person has to be immersed in the activity and fully engaged in order to succeed
and thus feel the flow.
