The causes of the Thai students‟ lack of participation is authentic and naturalclassroom settings have been explored. Among several reasons for this occurrence, one that hasgained attention is the important role of the teacher in the Thai education system. According toReeve, Bolt & Cai25, a significant role is played by teachers in inspiring and motivating studentsto learn, and for creating opportunities that enhance the motivation of the learners. It is importantfor teachers to discover “what motivates their students.”The Thai students presented two

According to the Ministry of Education, one of the reasons is related to students failing Pre-calculus courses more than once, caused probably by math competences low level upon university admission, low motivation for this subject and disconnection with real context problems. OCDE 2015 report explains this fact since it states that high school students in Colombia score 390 points in mathematics below the OECD, Chile (423 points) and Mexico (408 points) average in the PISA1 test.
