Cooperation and Competition as Effective Motiva tors for Educational activity
Abstract
The article reveals the impact of social interaction
types - cooperation and competition - on the level of motivation
of students. Using the theory of self-determination by
E. Deci and R. Ryan, the author concludes that employing the
strategies of cooperative solidarity and constructive cooperation
in the educational process, individuals satisfy their basic
psychological needs for competence, autonomy and community
feeling. This enhances intrinsic motivation, whereas
extrinsic motivation is becoming more self-determined, which
stimulates research work and students creativity and intensifies
the educational effect.
