Abstract

Stimulating and maintaining students’ learning motivation is the key to fully mobilizing the enthusiasm of students’ active participation and realizing the unity of students’ learning and teachers’ teaching. The ARCS motivational model is an instructional design model proposed by Professor Keller that focuses on motivating and sustaining students’ learning motivation. Additionally, NetPad is a web-based dynamic mathematics software with powerful functions and user-friendly interface, it can be organically integrated with teaching, enrich the teaching style, and strengthen students’ learning motivation. In this paper, we propose the NetPad motivational teaching mode based on the ARCS model and NetPad. This mode consists of four procedures: interesting cases introduction, detailed cases explanation, group inquiry, and mutual evaluation and sharing. Each procedure is progressive and complementary, reflecting the hierarchy of motivational teaching from shallow to deep and the synergy of motivation stimulating and maintaining. The teaching practice under the guidance of this mode has verified its effectiveness.
