Abstract

School expects all pupils to be motivated. But the truth is there is a big difference between ideal and reality. Some pupils are motivated from the beginning and stay that way all their life, other pupils lose their motivation along the way, some appear to never have been motivated and there is also a category with those who become motivated in time. A lot of questions spring from this situation. How come some pupils are motivated and some not? Why some pupils give up and in the end quit school? Is the saying “Education pays off†still valid, after moving generations? What solutions are there in order to support and motivate children in their education? In the research I have made with my students I have tried to find the reasons that provoke motivation or demotivation in learning.
