Strategies to Stimulate the Learning Motivation of Students in Middle School English Teaching
I. Introduction
In the book series named “Non-intellectual factors and success” written by Professor Shen Lide, it pointed out that the process to become success is a process that intellectual and non-intellectual abilities influence each other, yet the non-intellectual factors play a decisive role in it. Motivation is the critical one among those non-intellectual factors. Learning motivation is one of the factors that can affect the outcome. It has a role of inspiration: promotes students to get into a learning mood, so they will spontaneously and actively perform a variety school activities, and this will ensure them to achieve their learning goals; it can guide behaviors: encourages students to selectively involve in a variety of learning activities to reach specific learning goals; it can maintain behavior: encourages students to maintain their high level learning intensity to improve themselves until reaching the goal, to overcome all difficulties and achieve good results under competitive situations. Motivation is a prerequisite for learning. Researchers have showed that students with a strong motivation often have serious learning attitude and strong learning perseverance. During teaching, teachers should focus to mobilize fully the students’ motivation. This can achieve more with less work done, improve education outcome thus reach the goal of education.
