Abstract

In this paper, a motivational education for lecturing a science course in a university has been described. It is a system that maximizes student strengths by increasing students´ self-esteem. The technique has to be taken on the faculty first and then to students. A case study of a Digital Circuits course which is conducted in English has been studied. It has been proven practically, as this technique has resulted in better performance by students at Toin Yokohama University (TYU), Japan.
