deborah stipek

Developmental psychologist

Dean, Stanford University School of Education

“Teachers can motivate students only if they themselves are motivated. They can make students feel valued and secure only if they feel valued and secure; they can foster enthusiasm for learning in students only if they are enthusiastic about teaching. The school culture can make or break a teacher in the same way that the classroom culture can support or undermine students' efforts to learn."

profiles in motivation

Stipek’s general profiles of motivation may give the impression that…

students’ motivation in all school situations is similar

students’ motivation is of one kind or another, rather than a combination of one or more

the one five o

characteristics of motivation

The nature of motivation can be described by its:

behaviors emotions cognition

How can each profile be described in these terms?

the one five o

seeing better

One tends to see what one knows first-hand

Just because you’re familiar with it, doesn’t mean you see clearly

To modify, Stipek’s statement,

A teacher must be able to understand their own motivation in order to understand their students’ motivation.”

the one five o

seeing your own motivation

What does the way you spend your time and the things that concern you with school work reveal about your motivation?

Try to see without evaluating. Extremely difficult to do because your ego wants to protect itself
