Abstract :
In this paper, a motivation technique for computer education in a university is proposed. It is a system that maximizes student strengths by increasing students´ self-esteem. The technique has to be taken on the faculty first and then to students. A case study of a digital circuit course which is conducted in English has been described. It has been proven practically, as this technique has resulted in better performance by students during 1994 to 2001 in the Toin Yokohama University (TYU), Japan.
