definition

'strategy' is defined as : a smallest unit of activity within a sequenceto achieve an aim or objective

initiated by the student comparing current situationwith a personal ideal, and given and opportunityand realistic expectation for success

definition

' emotion ' is defined as : results from comparing an ideal target statewith a current state

to discover the difference ∆ between

what one what one's wants got ∆

you can see these comparisons at many stages

what one what one's wants got ∆

The diagram shows how the outcome from a lower activity through a negative-feedback loop creates a new perception of a higher activity, which when compared with the actual situation the difference ∆ then (given an opportunity, and holding a reasonable expectation of success) motivates the student to engage a lower activity.

The rate of achieving a goal is an affect, and the outcome of the comparison is an emotion.

. One Ship Sails East

One ship sails east, another sails westWith the self same winds that blow.It's the set of the sail and not the galeThat determines the way they goLike the winds of the sea are the waves of fateAs we journey along through lifeIt's the set of the soul that determines the goalAnd not the storm and the strife .

Which is better – extrinsic or intrinsic motivation ?

extrinsic is sometimes (not always) mechanical and short-lived,whileintrinsic is always deep, personally meaningful and long-lived ( = in long-term memory )

definition

Open Education Networkhttp :// www . open - ed. net

Each type has its own benefits :before an examination, extrinsic is efficient while in the early stages and in mid-courseintrinsic is effective and more efficient

The best policy is a strategic mix of both . . .

definition

Open Education Networkhttp :// www . open - ed. net

extrinsic and intrinsic motivationsare related to a student’s individual Approach to Learning

There are 3 approaches plus learning styles and pathologies1 deep meaningful intrinsic2 surface syllabus-bound extrinsic3 strategic achieving organized good-attitude
