Before asking "why," perhaps it would be good first to determine
whether the assertion that "most of us in higher education don't
plan motivation" is true.  What is the basis for your "finding"
this to be true?  I would have thought that most of us in fact
spend much time thinking about how to make material interesting
and relevant to students in ways that don't compromise the
academic integrity of the course.  Certainly stimulating interest
and encouraging participation are standard on most course
evaluation forms, if that is any indication.

Best wishes
