Write two functions of motives in learner's process?
Answers
In modem educational psychology every possible effort is made to base the education of the child on its motivations modern education aims at the excitation of one or the other motivation in a child in order to make any and every kind of education natural and normal. Various motivations in a child are useful in education in the following ways:
1. Escape
In a child one finds the motivation of escape conjoined to the emotion of fear. The intelligent teacher arouses fear and disgust towards bad things in the child. He also tries to prevent fear and escape from action in many unnecessary cases. Meaningless fears are thus eliminated.
2. Pugnacity
The instinct of pugnacity of combat is a universal motive. The most important fact that accelerates or excites it is restraint. A child whose means of locomotion are stopped by the simple expedient of being placed under restraint will go red in the face and cry at the top of its voice.
Conflict starts the moment one removes a chick from the hen, or makes fun of an irritable individual or prevents an animal from fulfilling and satisfying its motivations.
The object of animal in turning pugnacious is to remove the obstacle preventing its progress or to defeat the obstacle.
