Module 4 in Facilitating Learner Centered Learning 2022 2023
Module With this module, you will be given the opportunity to learn
Overview independently. This will guide you to have better understanding
on the concept of this course. Specifically, this course explores
the fundamental principles, processes, and practices anchored
on learner-centeredness and other education psychologies as
these apply to facilitate various teaching and learning delivery
modes to enhance 21st century learning.
Learning Outcomes
Introduction
Hi! How’s the new way of learning my dear student? I hope you are enjoying it. You
already assessed yourself with lots of theories in the previous modules. Today, you will
learn new theory that will help you improve your skills as a future educator. Enjoy and
keep on learning. Remember that studying is a hard task. However, it ceases to be a task
if you have the right kind and the right amount of motivation. Good luck!
Activity
Let us know how motivated you are. We have here a test. Score yourself by checking the
appropriate column.
Grand TOTAL
Analysis
Interpret you scores:
One hundred thirty (130) is the perfect score. If you got 65, that means you are midway
but not highly or very motivated. The closer you are to 130, the better motivated you are.
When a person is intrinsically motivated, his motivation comes from within him/her
or from the activity or task itself. When a person is extrinsically motivated s/he is
motivated by something or someone outside herself/himself.
Now try to identify examples of extrinsic motivation and intrinsic motivation based on
the items of the questionnaire checklist and answer the questions below.
Abstraction
Motivation is “a process whereby a goaldirected activity is instigated and sustained.”
(Schunk, Pintrinch & Meece, 2008)
Meaning of Motivation
The student’s level of motivation is shown in his/her choice of action, intensity and
persistence of effort. If you have a highly motivated student, you have a student who is
excited about learning and accomplishing things. S/he takes the initiative to undertake
learning tasks, assignments and projects without being pushed by his/her teachers and
parents. S/he has goals to accomplish and dreams to realize. S/he is convinced that
accomplishing the things s/he is asked to accomplish in class helps her/him realize the
goals s/he has set for herself/himself and his/her dream in life. S/he is willing to give up
the satisfaction of immediate goals for the sake of more important remote goals. An
example is her willingness to give up joining his/her barkada to watch a movie in order to
prepare thoroughly for final examinations.
A student who is highly motivated to learn enjoys learning and learns much more
than the one who is not as motivated. S/he persists and perseveres in her/his studies
even when things turn out to be difficult. S/he does not give up easily. As a result, his/her
performance is satisfactory. In contrast, a student who is not motivated to learn does not
enjoy learning, does not study unless “pushed”. When s/he feels the difficulty of study,
s/he readily gives up. S/he lacks perseverance.
Types of Motivation
Initially, extrinsic motivation is necessary to develop the love for learning among
poorly motivated students. If good grades, rewards, praises or words of encouragement
or fear of failing grade can motivate unmotivated students to study, why not? For as long
as students are hardly motivated, external motivation in the form of rewards, incentives or
punishment play a significant role in the development of motivated students.
Application
Now it is your time to apply your understanding about the types of motivation. Answer
the following questions. (use separate sheets if necessary)
1. Try to look back on your learning experiences. Can you cite some examples of
extrinsic and intrinsic motivation in your life as a student?
2. Are there any instances that extrinsic motivation is necessary? Give examples.
3. Some of the people argue that using rewards put students into the wrong message
about learning and there are research suggesting that rewards actually decrease interest
in intrinsically motivating tasks. Explain.
Closure
Congratulations! It is a job well done. You already finished the lesson 1. Keep on learning
and honing up your understanding. I am expecting that you will do your best in this new
normal type of learning.
Learning Outcomes
Introduction
Good day my young educator. How are you today? It seems that you are as excited
as I am to go back to school and see your friends and professors. But I guess, time won’t
allow us to do that because of the pandemic we are facing today. Nevertheless, it will not
stop us from learning few concept about facilitating learner-centered teaching.
Have fun while doing the tasks expected in this module during the new normal. Good
luck!

Learning Outcomes
Introduction
How’s the day my future educator? I hope you are doing great. I believe you have
adjusted already to the new way of learning. You have proven that you can learn on your
own. Today, you will be learning another theory that will best assist you as a future
educator.
Have fun while doing the tasks expected in this module during the new normal. Good
luck!
Activity
Activity: FEEL ME IN
Analysis
Guide Questions:
2. If all these feelings are your experienced, how would it affect your studies? You
may answer in a word.
Abstraction
This lesson summarizes motivational components (or constructs) that have been
found to impact student learning, including beliefs/perceptions, goals, values, and intrinsic
versus extrinsic motivation.
As a teacher, we always say that motivation plays an important role for an
individual to keep going. Indeed, it is an important foundation in the academic path of
every student. In fact, even an infant is interested to learn the world around them.
Without motivation, students lead not only to underachievement but as well skipping
to learn. This is due to the negative experiences of most students and begin to stop
trying hard since they think that their effort will not make any difference. This where
the model of John Keller’s ARCS instructional model is anchored upon.
1. Attention- it refers to the learners’ interest that is critical to get and hold their interests
and attention.
c. Humor -Maintain interest by use a small amount of humor (but not too much
to be distracting)
2. Relevance can assist increase a learner’s motivation. Using concrete language and
examples with which the learners are familiar. The learning process should show the
usefulness of the content so that learners can bridge the gap between content and the
real world.
This includes:
a. Experience – Tell the learners how the new learning will use their existing skills.
b. Present Worth – What will the subject matter do for me today?
c. Future Usefulness – What will the subject matter do for me tomorrow?
d. Needs Matching – Take advantage of the dynamics of achievement, risk taking,
power, and affiliation.
e. Modeling – First of all, “be what you want them to do!”
f. Choice – Allow the learners to use different methods to pursue their work or
allowing s choice in how they organize it.
3. Confidence helps students understand their likelihood for success. If they feel they
cannot meet the objectives or that the cost (time or effort) is too high, their motivation will
decrease. This component focuses on developing success expectation among learners,
and success expectation allow learners to control their learning processes.
Components:
a. Grow the Learners – Allow for small steps of growth during the learning process.
b. Feedback – Provide feedback and support internal attributions for success.
c. Learner Control – Learners should feel some degree of control over their learning
and assessment. They should believe that their success is a direct result of the amount of
effort they have put forth.
Application

expertise. Complete the table below (use separate sheet):

Closure
Good job. You are done with lesson one in this module. I am expecting that you
continue your interest in learning new concepts during this new normal.
Module Summary
Motivation refers to the initiation, direction, intensity and persistence of behavior.
When we get motivated to do something, it is not enough that we start working at that
thing but that we get attracted to it.
The ARCS model explains the importance to build student motivation to learn
and participate in any classroom activity. It further explains that the higher the
motivation the higher the productivity of students.
Each component in the ARCS model has specific strategy in motivating the
learning of the students.
Intrinsic motivation is shown in the enjoyment of the activity itself and the inner
conviction of the learner that such things are the right things to do in order to
realize a personal goal or a life dream. Intrinsic motivation yields more
advantages than extrinsic motivation.
