The ideal self is how I idealy see myself in the future.

The ought to be self is what I think is expected from me in the future.

Some ideas to motivate students:

Make them feel confortable in class. Create a good atmosfere.
Let them be proactive.
Maybe use flipped classroom to engage them.
Let them choose some topic to work on.

The 1 commandment I would select is : Create a pleasant, relaxed atmosphere in the classroom.

I think "Ideal self" might refer to one's own internal motivation and desires.

" ought to be" on the other hand could be external motivation and what is expected from them.

Other strategies to motivate students could be:

Making sure the class content is relatable to our students, making sure the tasks are challenging without being too easy, providing positive reinforcemet whenever possible...

An ideal self and an ought-to-be self

2024-03-14 18:29:44 UTC

An ideal self is what a person wants to be. It reflects their dreams, hopes and desireable outcomes regarding their personality and experiences related to it. Whereas, the ought-to-be self is connected to the sensible approach towards yourself, guided by the practicality of your choices. We act as our ought-to-be selves because we want to be on the safe side and meet social expectations.

One of the commandments for motivation would be moving with the times using updated materials that would be relatable to them. This way they get interested in the topic and take active part in the class.

I think that "the ideal self" refers to the image and conception of oneself as one would like to be. The ideal self, for me, represents the individual's goals, ambitions and desires.

The idea of "ought to be self" refers to the qualities, behaviours or achievements that someone believe they should attain. It is influenced by familiar, cultural or society pressures.

Strategies to motivate students:

Share their own stories to their classmates to create a good environment for learning.
Engage students in interactive activities that promote teamwork, creativity and problem-solving.
Encourage students to set realistic, achievable goals for themselves.

The "ideal self" is an idealized image an individual has of themselves. In other words, is the way you would like to be or aspire to be in the future, which represents your goals and desires in life.

On the contrary, the "ought to be self" is how you see yourself according to what people expect you to be. It normally follows social standards, roles or even family expectations.

Strategies to motivate students might be:

-Encouraging creative and imaginative activities

-Creating a comfortable environment in class

-Creating meaningful connections between the teacher and the students

The ideal self might be a representation we seek to reach as L2 learners, whilst the ought to be self might be defined by a representation which takes into account some limits in our L2 learning (accents for instance). I think creating sessions that are culturally close to pupils' interests may motivate L2 learners.
