Adults More Motivated
Abstract: Discovering who is more motivated to earn a degree adolescents or adults the outcome is more real for adults. Adolescents may be motivated to learn but the drive for them is different. Adults are interested in what they learn because they made the choice to go back to school usually for self fulfillment or job promotion. It does not matter the reason why they went back it was just the decision to go back that makes them more motivated. When an adult sees how hard work and dedication pays off in the end it motivates the learning. With experience behind adults they know that to get ahead they need to be motivated while adolescents are still in the teaching phase and do not see the light at the end of the tunnel.
