Abstract

Dealing with student motivation is one of the key responsibilities of every teacher. It is well known that motivation is defined in various ways and represents the force that initiates, directs, and sustains certain behavior. Numerous studies on the relationship between student motivation and different aspects of educational work testify to its importance in the context of formal education. In line with contemporary theoretical approaches, this paper distinguishes between extrinsic and intrinsic motivation, which differ in their sources and mechanisms of action. The aim of this paper is to systematize and critically analyze existing theoretical approaches and empirical findings related to fostering student motivation, along with strategies that teachers can apply in practice to enhance it. Accordingly, the method of theoretical analysis was applied in this paper, with elements of critical reflection and concrete pedagogical implications. The significance of addressing this topic lies in encouraging teachers to develop and implement effective ways of motivating students, thereby contributing to the overall quality of teaching.
