Students experience many changes in themselves and their behaviors between elementary and high school. Teenagers are expected to take on many responsibilities that they were not previously accustomed to. Students' attitudes adapt accordingly to their new standards. Students end old relationships and start new ones. Social, educational, and physical changes can place a lot of stress on middle and high school students, which is why these years are generally considered the worst for students. It is not uncommon for students to lack the motivation needed to succeed in school. Students spend most of their lives in school, so if they don't have the desire to succeed, they are jeopardizing their future. During these years, students begin to shape their new identities, which will continue to form as they become adults. It is normal for teenagers to feel confused and rebel against society's norms, which is something middle and high school teachers should expect. This is a crucial transition period during which teachers must step in and try to motivate students to do well. It is important to create an environment where learning is encouraged and pressure is kept to a minimum. Maintaining a calm and stable environment in the classroom is essential for students to be motivated to learn. Students often lose focus because unnecessary posters, decorations, and clutter distract them. This does not mean that teachers cannot use visual aids such as posters in their classrooms, but they should be able to maintain a clean and organized environment in which students are invited to learn. One way to create an effective learning environment is to create in staff a sense of flexibility in lesson planning to try to relate to all students in one way or another. This will increase your focus and motivation to succeed. There are many reasons why students lack motivation. They may feel uncomfortable in their learning environment. The training material may be difficult to understand and therefore seem boring. If a student is disorganized, they may not have the motivation to organize materials and refocus. If students have their minds focused on social issues and affairs, their priorities will not be staying focused in school and achieving success in the classroom. It is the responsibility of teachers to take action and do whatever is necessary to make students understand the importance of doing well in school. A little motivation can go a long way and pave the way for academic and social success in the future.
