Description: In recent years there has been increasing recognition that a student’s motivation for learning is not a long-term predisposition, but rather it can vary at different times and in different contexts. Thus, motivation can be regarded as a dynamic phenomenon that is sensitive to personal and environmental influences. At the present time however, there is no consensus about what processes would be involved in a dynamic system of motivation. In this paper, it will be argued that the personal and contextual influences can be interpreted as a motivational ecology, and appraisal of the motivational ecology determines the level of motivation at different times and in different situations.
