Abstract

The paper focuses on the motives for acquiring knowledge from foreign students in a pedagogical university and the quality and dynamics of foreign students' adaptation to the educational environment. A survey was conducted among foreign students studying at the Faculty of Natural Sciences of the Chuvash State Pedagogical University named after I. Y. Yakovlev located in Cheboksary, the Republic of Chuvashia, Russia. The methodology was used to diagnose the learning motivation of students, and a survey was conducted in order to identify the socio-pedagogical conditions for the adaptation of students in high school. Leading motives have been established that determine the desire of foreign students to obtain higher education in Russian cities. The dynamics of changes in students' learning motivation have been also revealed.
