A Systematic Model and Five Teaching Strategies for the Rejuvenation of Learning Motivation of Students in a Vocational Education Program

Abstract

In the past three years, the Covid-19 outbreak has led the world into a great health crisis, not to mention climate changes, geopolitics, world rules, war, economy, and political conflict. These factors have had some impacts on human societies. From many studies, it is found that “the youth from all over the world feel sad and desperate,” as well as feeling negative emotions such as anger, irritation, or worry, particularly in the case of vocational-course students. The main causes of said feelings are lack of interaction, inaccessibility to knowledge and professional skill improvement, and the indiscernible end of the pandemic. These factors partially cause students to be indifferent and may lead to other mental problems such as depression. According to the above problems, the research team, who are professionals specializing in the development of systematic strategy and teaching techniques in vocational and technical education, concluded that “the rejuvenation of student’s learning motivation based on the technical didactic method” is an important key to solving the problems.
