In this paper, we present our research on modeling learning motivation of students by analyzing class evaluation questionnaires, carried out with students as respondents at the end of each term to improve the courses in future semesters. We firstly defined three elements influencing learning motivation: (1) interest, (2) usefulness in the future and (3) satisfaction. Original questionnaire enquiring about those three elements was designed and conducted in multiple classes across different school years. Next, we conducted an experiment to classify students’ motivation for learning using the provided answers. The results of the experiment showed that students’ learning motivation can be estimated using the three elements defined in this study.
