National Publication UNED: podcast "La motivación en el aprendizaje de personas adultas This podcast tells us about why motivation is a key factor for learning at any age and situation, although reasons may be very different. Adults learn voluntarily, but they have different motivations: learning because they like it, or learning to improve in their work/find a better job; it depends on the type of course they want to do. As adults, learners can think more about what happened to fail and why they cannot understand what is going on during the course. Adult learning has its own condition, processes and results, and motivation is a transversal factor in all of them. It is very important that educators help their students find out their inner motivation and promote reflection about their own learning process.
