Motivation is the natural capacity to direct energy – through attention, concentration, and imagination - in pursuit of a goal. Learning is the active process of constructing meaning from experience and text. There is substantial evidence that motivation is consistently and positively related to educational achievement. It is important to keep in mind that all students are motivated in some way by something, although some may not be motivated to learn what a teacher has planned. The student’s motivation may be in another direction, aligned with a different goal or perspective or set of values; but in any circumstance, no matter how they may appear, learners are not inert.
