I have learned that a motivator can be both intrinsic and extrinsic in nature.  I will try not to use extrinsic rewards as a long-term motivator in the future and I will try to balance both intrinsic and extrinsic motivators for students. 

Motivation is based on the student's self-perception not how the instructor tells the student that he/she can do it.  I will help motivate by implementing activities that will increase the student's self-perception of his/her abilities in my classroom.
