Abstract

This paper discusses the value and significance of motivation by studying the principle of motivation strategy acquisition. The purpose of this study is to provide normative motivation strategy theory of adult learning motivation for education managers, planners and educators. This theory provides an important step for the integration of adult learning theory into adult learning motivation teaching design. In the study, intrinsic motivation and extrinsic motivation were investigated to determine the correlation between the form of motivation and successful second language acquisition. The results of the study obtained and analyzed the views of adults on motivational needs. These results show that specific teaching strategies are important for adult learners’ motivation. The current research results support the theory of adult language learning and provide new ideas for the future research of motivation strategy theory in this field. If there is not enough language motivation, it will hinder learners from learning language successfully. Obviously, these factors play a more important role in the learning process. Therefore, no matter how old the learner is, it is extremely important to implement motivation from the beginning of the learning journey and provide sufficient motivation strategies for adult learners.
