Digital Learning is often viewed as inherently motivating because they provide a number of qualities that strengthen motivation such as curiosity and novelty among the learners.
Here are five ways in which the learners may get excited and motivated with digital learning,
Motivate with goal setting
You are your own best motivator. Your motivation must come from within yourself. Others may try to encourage you, but you are the only one who can attain what you desire. You must convince yourself - you can! Start with surrounding yourself with positive people. They will encourage and nurture you. Stay away from negative people because they will discourage you and sabotage your dreams and goals. Also, try to be accountable personnel as a student in the following manner;
Complete a certain amount of assigned activities given by the digital learning experts each week and by trying to access all lesson content that has been posted by the experts and must provide a brief precis of their perception.
Motivate with rewards and praise
An expert must know that praise and reward are better motivating things than punishment. If they praise those learners who engage responsibly with digital learning, the learners will also coordinate. As mentioned in self-concept methods; Nothing motivates a person more than self-reinforcement (it can be positive or negative). In the case of students, experts should use positive reinforcement to help develop confidence.
Below mentioned are some strategies that will be helpful;
Some Positive feedback messages that contain videos, GIFs, and images
The experts can use MS Paint to create simple badges for different learners for their achievements.
The experts can also email parents with student congratulations which may contain any appreciation certificates that a learner receives.
Show significant signs of improvement in the virtual class.
Motivate with meaningful feedback
A digital learning expert must know the motivating power of timely and thoughtful feedback. It’s very easy to deliver quality feedback online. From these things the expert can have:
More time to compose more detailed feedback in writing.
The ability to communicate privately with any individual student.
Images and videos to support the comments and explanations of your feedback.
The tutor could personalize these things with a voice recording, emails, or an accessible way of connecting.
Work with parents to motivate students at home
We all know that parents are always present to motivate their children at home, but the tutor has to let them know how they can help. The tutor has to communicate with them directly so that they are aware of:
Exactly what type of work their child should be doing at their home.
Resources required for their child’s home learning.
Due dates for assignments that their child has to submit so that they can provide reminders when necessary
Simple activities that they can do to support digital learning on a day-to-day basis
Any signs that their child is needing assistance in any particular area.
Stay connected as a class and motivate each other
As we know that without the company of friends and the classroom buzz, it’s easy for digital learners to feel isolated. This results in a loss of motivation. The tutors must build a sense of community in their online learning environment. These can be the strategies:
They can coordinate online group activities.
They can take the time to chat about off-topic matters. Like as they can discuss how everyone is keeping themselves busy and staying healthy at home.
They must make their communication personal. For this, they must use names and keep the tone warm and engaging with them. The tutors could even have virtual shows for betterment.
Also, to have motivating sessions to help the child initiate and help in the elicitation of things being perceived on a daily basis.
CONCLUSION:
One can only be motivated in life when they have a motive for their future and what they want to attain, and we here at BISJHINTUS, help students possess that motive with them so that they do not have to fear anything in life. We hear them act as the motivators your children need for the attainment of their goals, help us and “Let’s succeed together”.
