The Importance of Theories:
Theories are the teacher`s arsenals and the foundation for learning and teaching. Learning about theories and being exposed to different sets of them arms the teacher different strategies and effective ways to meet the learning needs of learners.
Theories are the teacher`s arsenals and the foundation for learning and teaching. Learning about theories and being exposed to different sets of them arms the teacher different strategies and effective ways to meet the learning needs of learners.
Theories are very essential in education they
give us a deeper incite about the learners` background and knowledge in
addition, they give us a guide of different techniques and methods that might
come in handy in enhancing the learning process in the classroom.
The point and
the supreme goal behind the theoretical exposure is to raise consciousness and
awareness of issues that are related to teaching and learning. As future
teachers, once you step to your classroom you will find yourself demonstrating
one theory or a combination of theories (bits and pieces from here and there)
you advocated from the educational field. And once you gain experience you
will modify your theory to meet the students` needs so you will have a refined
one to work with.
There are three things to remember about education. The first
is motivation. The second one is motivation. The third one is motivation.
(former U.S. Secretary of Education Terrel Bell).
Motivation has been always a major concern for educators.
It’s always viewed as a primary and essential factor due to its importance in
the educational environment. Motivation has several effects on students`
learning and behavior since it`s the need or the desire that energizes,
directs, and sustains behavior toward a certain goal (Hancock, 2004).
Students came to schools intrinsically motivated. They have
this strong desire to learn and discover new things throughout their academic
journey. They came to us with high self-esteem and high expectations about
learning and education in general. But unfortunately teachers, school system
and school curriculum sometimes play an important and major role in
demotivating and frustrating students.
So this lack of motivation affects our students and appears
to increase each year from cycle one to high school. Students can demonstrate
and show this lack of motivation and encouragement by blocking and withholding
efforts in the educational field as well as in some extracurricular activities
or mind games and competitions.
therefore, we need to create, provide and inspire the
conditions and keys for the growth of motivation in our students.
