Abstract: ”The researcher is always at the beginning of the endless path of knowledge” (Ciolan, 2008, our translation). The modern concept of human knowledge in all its manifestations is heavily centred on the model of natural and social science, in which the essential elements of the investigation are the formulation of a hypothesis, the assumption of an objective, independent reality, and the testing of the theory. Thus, among psychological processes and mechanisms defining the human being, motivation plays a particularly important role in knowing and understanding as accurately as possible the nature of man, his determination in performing the work tasks, namely by analyzing the students and their degree of selective sensitization and impetus, falling within the general category of motivation. This being said, the present paper aims to capture the ways to motivate motivation along with its types, especially the intrinsic, its "spring" and its applicability to the classroom.
