INTRODUCTION
“ RELATIONSHIP OF NEED AND
MOTIVATION
What is motivation?
”
Motivation is a complex phenomenon. There are many theories and
views which try to explain motivation. The basic needs model, referred to as
Content Theory of Motivation focuses on the specific factors that motivate an
individual to act in a certain way. These factors are found both within and
outside of an individual. All people have needs that they want satisfied. As
future teachers, it is important for you to be theoretically grounded on the
subject matter of motivation.

1. “Motivation is defined as an internal state that arouses, directs and
maintains behavior.”
–Woolfolk, 2013; Ormrod, 2015
2. “Motivation is something that energizes, directs and sustains behavior;
it gets students moving, points them in a particular direction and
keeps them going. The students’ motivation is often reflected in
personal investment and cognitive engagement in an activity.”
From Maehr et al., 2013

KINDS OF MOTIVATION
EXTRINSIC MOTIVATION – It refers in doing something to get a
reward from the environment. It is also a conquering a
challenge for reasons like earning a high grade, avoiding
punishment o some other reason that has very little to do with
the task itself. There is really no interest in the task or activity
itself, but only the gains one expects to get out of the task.
(Woolfolsk, 2013) This is an external stimulus to learning
activity. Praise and blame, rivalry, rewards and punishment are
the more common forms of extrinsic motivation. It is based on
incentives. The student is encouraged to do good work by such
drives as high marks, honors, prizes, scholarships and privileges.

INTRINSIC MOTIVATION – It refers to doing something because you enjoy it,
not because of some sort of reward. The natural tendency of an individual to
seek out and conquer challenges as he pursues his personal interest and
exercise his capabilities.
When intrinsically motivated, there is no need for incentives or rewards,
because the activity itself is satisfying and rewarding. (Anderman et al.,
2013)
This is an internal stimulus to learning. Intrinsic motivation is based on motives
that the individual is trying to satisfy. Motive is a thought, feeling or condition
that causes one to act. Most common forms of intrinsic motivation are the
desire for knowledge to explore and to construct.

THEORIES ON RELATIONSHIP BETWEEN
NEED AND MOTIVATION
The theory further asserts that lower needs have to be met or satisfied
first before the next higher needs could be addressed. The four level lower-level
needs – for survival, safety, belonging and self-esteem are deficiency needs.
When these needs are satisfied or met, the motivation for fulfilling them
decreases. The three higher-level needs – intellectual achievement, aesthetic
appreciation and finally self-actualization needs. When such needs are met, a
person’s motivation does not cease, but instead increases to seek further
fulfilment. These needs can never be completely filled.
Maslow’s theory provides a way of looking at the student whose
physical, emotional and intellectual needs are interrelated. It also means that
the teacher will be able to help his/her students on their journey to self-
actualization, by seeing to it that the lower level needs to the survival needs
that are first met and satisfied.
