MOTIVATION FACTORS & EFFECTS ON LEARNERS, WITH THE BENEFITS OF GOOD TEACHING.
Looking at Maslow’s hierarchy of needs, it shows what basics are needed for any form of motivation.

Safety factors are if they feel safe in what they are doing, could be the security of the building, of the material they are studying/work they are doing. If people are not feeling safe then they won’t want to do the work, no work done, no learning taking place.
The common link between the dis-satisfiers and the motivators is the sense of belonging. If a member of the team does not feel that they belong then their enthusiasm will certainly be decreased, having a negative effect on the rest of the learners, the learners need to feel part of a team.

The Self-actualisation is when they feel motivated and are actually doing the work and are happy in doing so. This is the main goal as well as the whole team sharing the same vision, learning and developing well.
