AB - This study examines how reward systems in dance choreography teaching influence students’ self-efficacy and learning motivation. Data were collected through a questionnaire survey of 382 undergraduate dance majors and in-depth interviews with five teachers and five students.
The findings show that reward systems have a significant direct positive effect on learning motivation and also indirectly enhance motivation by improving students’ self-efficacy, confirming a dual-pathway mechanism in motivation formation. In dance education, reward systems function both as a direct driver of learning motivation and as a supportive factor that strengthens students’ psychological resources and promotes intrinsic motivation.
The results suggest that effective and sustainable motivation in dance education can be achieved by integrating well-designed reward systems with strategies that enhance students’ self-efficacy, thereby creating a teaching model where external incentives and internal psychological mechanisms work together.
