Students’ Motivation and Satisfaction in a School that Learns

In an interconnected world, with generations of students that have a changed profile from previous generations, we have considered important to re-discover, as part of a school that learns, the factors that influence our students’ motivation and satisfaction. Using adapted tests on academic motivations and satisfaction, we have found that most subjects (from technical and socio – human profiles) have obtained high scores both for intrinsic motivation (for knowledge, accomplishments, and stimulation) and extrinsic motivation (for identification, introjection and external regulation), but also for satisfaction (autonomy, relations, and competence). Exceptional situations have been identified about some students considering their motivation for stimulation and satisfaction for relations. Other results are also discussed here.
