| Abstract | ||
| The focus of this paper is in the area of motivation in an Arab EFL context, particularly in Oman. It is found incumbent to explore motivation in a higher education institution so that instructors can provide the necessary support to their EFL learners. Understanding the meaning, types and factors of motivation enables instructors to form the basis for their teaching process. Understanding that autonomy, students’ sense of relatedness, their interest in the given tasks and enhancing their sense of competence are utterly essential in motivating EFL learners. | ||
