Open semi-structured individual interviews were conducted with undergraduates, students at community colleges and students in taught postgraduate courses in Hong Kong. The analysis used an exploratory grounded theory approach and resulted in a motivational orientation framework with six continua with positive and negative poles. On enrolment students had positions on the six facets of motivation, which shifted as they progressed through their degree according to their perceptions of the teaching and learning environment. The framework can, therefore, be used to explain both initial decisions to enrol and motivation to continue studying. The interviews included descriptions of teaching approaches and learning activities and their effects on motivation. This made it possible to describe a teaching and learning environment conducive to motivation, with eight supportive conditions. Each facet of the teaching and learning environment is illustrated with quotations from the three groups of students, resulting in a guide to configuring a teaching and learning environment conducive to motivating students. The emerging community-college sector in Hong Kong is used as a case study of the effects on student motivation of the expansion of the higher education sector through private colleges. Cultural issues are discussed, particularly the performance of Asian students relative to those in the West. 606 $aEducation, Higher 606 $aLearning, Psychology of 606 $aEducational tests and measurements 606 $aHigher Education 606 $aInstructional Psychology 606 $aAssessment and Testing 615 0$aEducation, Higher. 615 0$aLearning, Psychology of. 615 0$aEducational tests and measurements. 615 14$aHigher Education. 615 24$aInstructional Psychology. 615 24$aAssessment and Testing. 676 $a370 700 $aKember$b David$4aut$4http://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/aut$0776720 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910255135803321 996 $aUnderstanding the Nature of Motivation and Motivating Students through Teaching and Learning in Higher Education$92511400 997 $aUNINA
