Abstract

This study aims at analyzing the components of motivation, which influence the learning process from a psychological perspective. The literature review serves as the background for the study conducted in three high schools of Durres, Albania. In the second part, this study discusses students, teachers understanding, and perceptions of these components and then explores which one of them, if any, they interpreted as the most influential factor to their perceptions of motivation. The findings show that components of motivation should not be considered independently, thus they overlap with one another as shown in the eight small circles. Within the third part of our study, we introduce a reconceptualization of motivation to learn which will possibly provide additional insights in better identifying existing motivational challenges and taking realistic perspectives about the English as a Foreign Language.
