Debate:Motivation

This is a Teflpedia debate page started by a teacher. Debate pages are used for discussing issues in English language teaching. Please be civil. No matter how much you may disagree with another user, please criticize what has been said and not the person saying it.

Motivation is the driving force that gets students to attend class and progress in their language learning. Some teachers believe it the responsibility of each student to generate his/her own motivation, while other teachers consider that, as experts in education and learning processes, they can provide opportunities for students to be motivated - at times, even against the students' own wishes.
