INTRODUCTION
1. BACKGROUND TO THE STUDY
Uhumwonde Local
Government Area is one of the seven new local government created from the old
Uhumwonde Local Government in 2001 by the administration of the former governor
of Edo State, after its creation in 2001 Uhumwonde Local Government Area had
being faced with so many challenges rending run population control funding,
administration and federal government refusal to recognize the 37 newly created
local government by t he Edo State Government. Despite all this, frustrating
moves, Uhumwonde Local Government as it was after named to be still in its
little want gave the people it diverged to democracy under the chairmanship of
late Osawan. Over the past decades several questions have been raised on the
poor performance of students in schools also asked such questions as to why
some students work harder at different tasks. Persisting in the fact of
difficulties and late on succeed while some others are rather lazy and tend to
give up in the face of difficulties the above situation is often as a result of
result of lack of motivation being given to the learners.
An educational
institution like the secondary primary schools which this project is meant to
address has been damaged by lack of motivation with regard to teachers, much
that the standard of education has dropped. This could associated to
miss-management by teachers who fails to realize that motivation is natural. It
is part of life particularly in our schools and cannot be eliminated or
prevented completely from our lives. Motivation is primarily concerned with
improving the teaching learning situation in schools. The major role of
motivation is to stimulate guild and help students to improve on their
learning. It give information relating to the provision of instructional
internals and how certain concepts can be taught. The lack of proper motivation
of the pupil to achieving their goals has been the major blame for this
situation most probably against the background. A lot of personalities felt the
motivation should be looked at more closely to prefer solutions. Uroom (1964)
argues that the level of effort of an individual’s puts into an activity is
influenced by the level of expectation that the action will be fully rewarded
he noted that variables as attractiveness.
1. STATEMENT OF THE PROBLEMS
Knowing or unknowingly
human beings always strive to establish equilibrium all through their lives.
The common beliefs is that whatever goes up must come down and in case of a
country like Nigeria, people are prompted to use all resources at their disposal
to solve their equilibrium created by a problem. Although everybody has his own
characteristics ways of responding to such situation is the nature of the
response determines to large extents the person’s adjustment to life. Robbin
(1991) lay credence to this fact when he states that an unsatisfied need
creates tension that stimulates drive within the individuals. The main problems
therefore are low for an motivational indentures. Serves to enhance teaching
situation; lack of motivation in a student is prime factor militating against
teaching process; this can lead to loss of interest in the school activities.
It can ultimately leads to a fall in the standard of education.
