Student motivation in higher education

Description

This keynote will focus on motivating students in higher education. We will first discuss the definition of motivation and then focus on what lecturers and teachers can do to support motivation in higher education and why motivating students can be so tricky. The importance of finding a good balance between (teacher/instructional) support and directiveness will be discussed and illustrated by discussing topics such as providing choices in education, the role of student-centered learning (e.g., problem-based, project-based, and challenge-based learning), and flexibility in higher education.
