Some people say that the hardest step in studying is
to get started. But nowadays most of the student learning online away from
their teacher and their friends. This makes student have to learn by their self,
and that’s why they need motivation. We are social human beings, so it’s hard
to get motivated when you are alone. We can get motivation from ourselves, the closest people, and of course in
today's modern era, that is internet access. In online learning, motivation is
needed as an effort to increase achievement in learning. There are several factors that can motivate
students in learning, that is personal factors, internal factors, and external
factors.
Motivation can influence what we learn, how we learn, and when we choose to learn (Schunk & Usher, 2012). Motivation is a reason that encourages someone to do an activity to achieve certain goals. To achieve good results in learning, the individual must be able to encourage himself to have an interest in learning. We can do several things to motivate ourselves in learning online. We can start by making a regular study schedule, a regular schedule will make us more focused and organized. Understand your methods and ways of learning, it will make it easy for you to study. Next, write down the hardpoints on the sticky note to make it easier to remember. Then make a target so you can see what improvements or achievements you have got. After that, give yourself an award so that you are more enthusiastic in learning.
Motivation does
not only come from ourselves, the closest people can also make us motivated in
learning. However the role of parents is very important, parents can provide
support, encouragement, and supervision while their children studying. In addition,
teachers are also one of the biggest motivators for their students, such as
creating diverse and fun learning methods and activities, making students
active in learning, providing propositional tasks, creating a conducive classroom
atmosphere, and rewarding students. Besides that, peer support can also make us
motivated, such as studying in groups. It can make it easier and make us
enthusiastic about learning.
To do online learning, of course we need supporting
facilities. Complete facilities make us more motivated to learn, such as mobile
phones, laptops, and internet access. In learning online, internet access is
the biggest support to help us learn. Although if it is difficult for us to get
internet access, there are other supports to increase our interest in learning,
that is through television and radio. As has been done by the government
recently, so that remote area can still
get learning opportunities.
