Book excerpt: Few academic issues are of greater concern to teachers, parents, and school administrators than the academic motivation of the adolescents in their care. There are good reasons for this concern. Students who are academically motivated perform better in school, value their schooling, are future-oriented in their academic pursuits, and possess the academic confidence and positive feelings of self-worth so necessary to increasing academic achievement. Because academically motivated students engage their schoolwork with confidence and interest, they are less likely to drop out of school, suffer fewer disciplinary problems, and prove resilient in the face of setbacks and obstacles. It is precisely because academic motivation is so essential to academic achievement that motivation has taken a place along with cognition as one of the most followed lines of inquiry in educational psychology. In this volume, we are fortunate to gather together some of the most eminent scholars who have written extensively about the academic motivation of adolescents. We are fortunate also in that they represent the varied theories and lines of inquiry that currently dominate research in this area. In all, we believe that in the dozen chapters that comprise this volume, the authors provide elegant insights regarding the academic and social motivation of adolescents that will prove of interest to researchers, students, teachers, school administrators, parents, policymakers, and all others who play a pivotal role or are otherwise invested in the lives of adolescents in today's society. It is our hope that these insights will not only further the conversation on adolescence and education, but will serve as the impetus for further research capable of generating the creative ideas, programs, and structures so necessary to better the lives of the young people in our care.

Download or read book The Role of interest in Learning and Development written by K. Ann Renninger and published by Psychology Press. This book was released on 2014-02-04 with total page 423 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Interest is just emerging as a critical bridge between cognitive and affective issues in both learning and development. This developing "interest" in interest appears to be linked to an increasing concern for studying the individual in context, examining affective variables as opposed to purely structural features of text, analyzing the interrelationship of cognitive and social development, understanding practical applications of theories of motivation, and recognizing the importance of developmental psychology for the study of learning. This book addresses both how individual interest and interest inherent in stimuli (books, text, toys, etc.) across subjects affect cognitive performance. While the book's particular emphasis is on theory-driven research, each of the contributing authors offers a unique perspective on understanding interest and its effects on learning and development. As such, each has contributed a chapter in which particular questions in interest research are described and linked to a clearly stated theoretical perspective and recent findings. Relevant material from the broader literatures of psychology and education are analyzed in the context of these discussions. In addition, the introductory and concluding chapters build on the contributions to the volume by providing the basis of a coherent view of interest across genres such as stories and expository text, and domains as varied as play, reading, and mathematics.

Book excerpt: Background of the Study Modern age is the age of competition in all walks of life either it is academic or vast arena of non-academic fields. Therefore, success in every field is determined by performance. The concept of performance refers to how well the given task is completed against the set standards. Everywhere there is high competition in the working world which is increasingly growing day by day. The importance of doing well in schools has caught the attention of everyone in all spheres of life including parents, teachers, legislators, and government education departments, etc. Although, simple education is necessarily very important but not the only road to success in the competitive world. However, quality of performance in academic achievement and thereafter, continuous quality effort to achieve the goals and objectives are instrumental for performance at par with standards to meet the challenges. Much effort has been made to identify, track and encourage the progress of students in schools. Parents have to care about their child's performance in school because they believe good academic results will provide better career choices, success, and job security. Performance in school is evaluated in a number of ways. For regular performance assessment, student demonstration of their understanding and knowledge in written and oral tests, performance in presentations, completion of homework assignments, participation in-class activities and discussions are and finally achievement scores usually considered as performance criteria. Teachers evaluate it in the form of grades to describe how well a student has done. Grading system came into existence in the late Victorian period and was initially criticized due to high subjectivity. Different teachers valued different aspects of learning more than others, although some standardization was attempted in order to make the system fairer the problem still continued. The performance, especially of students in studies, is most likely determined by family environment, emotional maturity, and educational encouragement which all initially come from the family environment. Here, it is important to mention that the phenomenon of educational encouragement has not been studied especially in the Indian context which to the present investigator seems to be very important for students' motivation and thereby attaining high performance. With these above deliberations, it is necessary to go further to undertake each and every variable for a comprehensive discussion that follows in the writings to proceed. Chapter -1 Introd,

Book excerpt: INTRODUCTION Education is an enlightening process that provides knowledge and skills, to infuse values that facilitate nurturance of right attitudes and habits among students. It is a versatile development that gives rise to unified measures of a self-sufficient human being. "Education is the process of developing the capabilities and potentials of an individual, as to prepare that individual to be successful in a specific society or culture" (Aremu, 2000). Since education is a dynamic phenomenon, with time it encounters several challenges in all aspects of social, economic and cultural lives of mankind around the globe. The significance of education cannot be underestimated, as it plays an essential role in cognitive development of the masses. Bearing the challenges and importance of education in mind, it becomes sheer important to emphasize upon its prime goal i.e. Academic Achievement of the students. "Academic achievement is an incredible pointer for the general prosperity of youth and an essential indicator and determinant of adults physical well being outcomes "(Vernez, Krop & Rydell, 1999). 1.1 ACADEMIC ACHIEVEMENT Academic Achievement is a manifold construct that consists of different domains of learning and is taken as the criterion for selection, encouragement and recognition of students in various walks of life. It is considered as a determinant to evaluate ones potentialities and capabilities, students in all cultures are expected to accomplish high levels of academic achievement. According to Trow, "Academic achievement is a knowledge attaining ability or degree of competence in school tasks, usually measured by standardized tests and expressed in a grade or units based on pupil's performance" According to Crow & Crow (1969), "It is the extent to which a learner is profiting from instructions in the given area of learning". "Academic achievement is the attainment of knowledge, competencies, and higher-level status, as reflected in grades, degrees, and other forms of certification or public acknowledgement" (Collins & O'Brien, 2011),
