5. Maslow’s Hierachy of Needs As educators perhaps we share a common goal in striving to make sure that, where possible, students’ deficiency needs are satisfied in order to facilitate motivation and to stimulate optimal learning and development. Maslow argues that intrinsic motivation will not occur if students are concerned for lacking hygiene factors in their environment, or perhaps do not have adequate affinity with or respect for respect for the people around them
