Modern education requires constant innovation to improve its
quality. However, young academic teachers may have difficulties in adopting and
implementing innovative approaches in their teaching practice. The research
is aimed at studying motivational factors that can stimulate young teachers to
actively participate in innovative activities. The novelty of the study lies in the
combination of data on the motivation of teachers and their preferences in the
use of technology in education, which can become the basis for the development
of effective strategies for motivating and supporting teachers in their innovative
activities. The study consisted of two parts – a questionnaire to determine the
main motivational factors, and an interview for a deeper understanding of
the opinions and experiences of participants. It was established that the main
motivational factors are material incentives and communication within the
teaching community, recognition and support from colleagues and management,
as well as good atmosphere in the team. Least of all, the participants are
motivated by an internal desire for innovation and professional awards. At the
same time, respondents give more preference to mixed learning methods in
their activities, less to interactive learning using VR and AR technologies. Thus,
developing internal motivation is recommended, as is encouraging enthusiasm
for introducing new technologies in the educational process.
