Application of ARCS Motivation Model in the English Writing Teaching in Senior High School

Abstract

Writing is the main manifestation of students' language output ability and can also raise awareness of how language works. However, the current difficulties in English writing teaching, such as students' insufficient motivation, teachers' lack of attention to English writing teaching and imperfect English writing evaluation mechanism, have made the development of students' writing ability a major difficulty in English teaching. To address this situation, this paper attempts to integrate the four types of motivation strategies of ARCS model into senior high school English writing teaching in order to effectively motivate and maintain learners' enthusiasm for writing and improve the effectiveness of writing teaching.
