Zadovoljavanje osnovnih psiholoških potreba i autonomna motivacija u kontekstu škole: testiranje aditivne, sinergističke i hipoteze ravnoteže
2018
The present study examined the influence of the three basic psychological needs on autonomous motivation in educational settings in the light of additive, synergistic, and balance hypotheses. Participants were 679 high school students (Mage = 16.16, 49.3% girls). The findings supported the additive hypothesis: all three needs had unique effects on autonomous motivation. The synergistic hypothesis was only partially supported: one two-way interaction between autonomy and competence had effect on autonomous motivation. A high level of satisfaction of the need for autonomy led to autonomous motivation regardless of satisfaction of the need for competence. However, competence was positively rel…

Candidate techniques were identified through a comprehensive review of self-determination theory interventions and nomination by experts. The study…

Šī pētījuma mērķis ir izpētīt, kāds būtu vispiemērotākais pedagoģiskais risinājums (pieeja un procesi), lai bērni vecumā no 5-6 gadiem ar īpašām vizuālajām vajadzībām iegūtu matemātisko kompetenci. Pētījumā tiek aplūkoti skaitļa jēdziena teorētiskie pamati un analizēti skaitļu mācīšanās posmi un to nozīmīgums šajā vecumā. Matemātiskā domāšana attīstās, bērnam nodarbojoties ar matemātiku. Matemātiskajā jomā domāšanas stingrība ir būtiska pazīme jau no pirmās mācīšanās pieredzes. Empīriskajā daļā tika izpētīta skaitļa jēdziena izpratne un matemātiskās domāšanas apguves procesi, anketējot bijušos studentus, kuri atsauca atmiņā savu matemātikas apguves procesu un tā tālākizmantošanu izglītības …
