Week 3: How People Learn/ The Creative Learning Environment

on

Chapter 6: Motivation

In How People Learn II: Learners, Contexts, and Cultures, Chapter 6 explores Motivation to Learn. The study targets four primary influences: People's own beliefs and values, intrinsic motivation, the role of learning goals, and social and cultural factors that affect motivation. The study concluded that students' motivation to learn is influenced by multiple factors including constructed goals for themselves based on their personal life experiences and when school is a safe place where they feel they belong, can find purpose or value in learning, and have self-agency. The attached graphic addresses influences of motivation in learning and connects some of those points to Gura and Rivero's points on the creative learning environment in addition to the ISTE standards.
