Growing student disinterest is one of the major problems facing contemporary education. This
problem stems from many things, such as a focus on standardized testing, electronic distractions,
and a mismatch between the interests of the students and the curriculum. Numerous students
believe that "the current educational system is more focused on passing tests than on meaningful
learning," according to Jones (2023) (p. 45). Instead of absorbing the topic, students are under
continual pressure to get excellent results, which makes them feel frustrated and unmotivated.
Instead of absorbing the topic, students are under continual pressure to get excellent results,
which makes them feel frustrated and unmotivated. Furthermore, the proliferation of social
media and digital entertainment frequently diverts students, making it challenging for them to
focus on their academic work. According to Jones (2023), students often find it difficult to relate
what they are discovering to their passions or aspirations for the future. They find it challenging
to stay engaged in their education as an outcome of this disconnect, which makes them feel
detached from the process of learning. Due to these issues, an entire generation of students is
finding it difficult to maintain their motivation. If these problems aren't resolved, motivation will
probably continue to decline, which will affect participation in class and lead to worse grades. To
address this issue, schools should Emphasize giving students' education greater meaning and
importance while relieving their test-related stress. They find it challenging to stay engaged in
