Key idea ๐ŸŒŸ

Motivation influences our decisions to participate in sports, determines how hard we work at them, and how long we stick with them.

Quick bites ๐Ÿ”ฅ

  • Direction, Intensity & Persistence

    ๐ŸŽฏ Real-life example: Think of trying out for your school's football team.

    • Direction: What activity we choose.
    • Intensity: How hard we work at it.
    • Persistence: How long we're willing to work at it.
    • Direction: You chose football over, say, basketball.
    • Intensity: During practice, you give it your all, hoping to make the cut.
    • Persistence: You keep coming back to practice, even when it's tough.
  • Intrinsic vs. Extrinsic Motivation

    ๐Ÿฆ Fun Fact: Kids generally prefer fun and skill improvement (intrinsic factors) over trophies (extrinsic rewards)!

    • Intrinsic: Doing an activity because it's enjoyable or personally satisfying. It's about proving to yourself!
    • Extrinsic: Motivated by external rewards or recognition.
  • Why Intrinsic Rocks ๐ŸŽธ

    ๐Ÿšด‍โ™€๏ธ For instance: You might ride your bike because it feels awesome, not just to win a race.

    • Intrinsic motivation often leads to
      • Better learning and performance.
      • More satisfaction with performance.
      • Picking more challenging tasks.
      • Spending more time and effort on tasks.
  • Boosting Intrinsic Motivation

    ๐Ÿ›’ Real-world scenario: It's like choosing your project topic in class. If you pick a topic you're passionate about, you'll probably dive deeper and enjoy the research more!

    • Reduce external rewards.
    • Encourage personal goal setting.
    • Provide choices and relevance in learning.
  • The Power of Relevance:๐ŸŽฎ Game On: Imagine playing a video game without knowing its storyline. TGfU is like giving you the game's story, so you understand why you're battling those monsters!
    • Making learning meaningful boosts motivation.
    • The "Teaching Games for Understanding" (TGfU) approach emphasizes understanding the game's context first.
  • The Double-Edged Sword of Extrinsic Motivation

    ๐Ÿ… Picture This: Winning a medal for a race feels great. But if you run only for medals, you might lose the joy of running. And if the medals stop? Your motivation might vanish!

    • Can be useful for certain sports or individuals.
    • But, it might lead to negative behaviors and dwindling interest.
  • Mixing Intrinsic & Extrinsic Motivation

    โšฝ Kick-off Thought: If you're playing soccer, it's fantastic to get a trophy. But isn't it also amazing to master a tricky move or feel the thrill of teamwork on the field?

    • Coaches/teachers should aim to cultivate intrinsic motivation.
    • Offer feedback on improvements, not just praise or rewards.
