Self-Determination Theory in Action

Students usually start school with the most outside director as the main form of supervision. External supervision is done when the motivation of the student is based on external compensation or punishment. As students shift from external supervision to internal regulation, they gradually begin to internalize the motivation for participation. Internal regulation occurs when a student is aware of what you and others think about you and is a means to cultivate yourself and respond to internal expectations.

In the mid-1980s, researchers Edward L. Decech and Richard Ryan discovered the theory of motivation called self-determination theory (SDT). It focuses to some extent that individual behavior is self-motivating and self-determining. Spontaneous behavior is considered to be the result of essential motivation; it is fun and satisfying, so it is to do activities. People with strong intrinsic motivation prefer to complete work without pushing from outside. Our role as a designer is to design experiences and interfaces to enhance the user's essential motivation and to keep using our products and services. This can be accomplished by recalling the three natural psychological needs that SDT decides to adjust the user's inherent motivation. They are:

Self-determinism (1991) Self-determinism (SDT) is a personality theory that includes behavioral factors. It focuses on the motivation behind personal choices. Since the inspiration of self-determinism is rather interesting and satisfying rather than motivation to achieve goals and get external compensation like money, the endogenous motivation which is the idea of ​​participation in activities It comes from the study of. With an essential motive, look for challenges that can promote growth. The essential motivation will prosper if it is related to safety and relevance (Deci & Ryan, 1991).

Self - determinism supports adults driven by internal urges. However, one aspect of self - determinism contradicts the important premise of anthropology. It is a self - determinism that argues that endogenous motivation is a more effective motivating factor for all people, including children. Knowles (1984) is aware of the possibility to apply to specific children and most adults, but clearly it is better to study the principles of motivation from the viewpoint of self-determinism than to pedagogy We do not provide understanding.
