I create motivation in the students on my courses by:
• bringing knowledge to life with examples of how models and theories can be applied to real-life events
• establishing a coupling between the content of a course and questions the students can relate to
• demonstrating how the knowledge can be useful for the students – both in their professional life and in other contexts
I am sure that this activates the students to self-learning and increases the relevance of the education.

One of our most important tasks as teachers is to awaken the students’ interest and in this way increase their motivation to learn. We can do this by bringing knowledge to life, and demonstrating how it will be useful to the students.
