John M. Keller noticed the lack of verve in young students. Most students are simply learning enough to pass the test. This is a way of learning that I can relate to. Until this year, I was a student who was just learning to pass. While in Hospitality, I knew that the majority of what I needed to know would be from hands on experience. Therefore, I was only in school to get my degree and did not care about learning. I didn't really retain much knowledge from my classes until this year. The education departments enthusiasm has again taught me the joys of learning. When I become a teacher I too hope to instill the joy of learning into the hearts of my students. I will do this by using ARCS motivational model.
