Abstract :

Several reports from scientists, teachers and parents maintain that the students have a low level of motivation in studying natural sciences. There were noted an aggressive attitude to some courses and to school in all. Several students of Rezekne Higher Education institution’s engineering faculty participated in a research about motivation in studying natural sciences. All the data collected dur-ing the research was stored and processed with a self made computer program to determine the mo-tivation of students. The majority of respondents are satisfied with the choice of their specialty. They are interested in studying natural sciences with the use of ICT and would like to have a chance to use the training material in a digital format.

Keywords :

motivation, students, Rezekne Higher Education institution, natural sciences
