Dynamic Potential of Feedback in Self-Regulated Learning and Motivation of Children with Mathematical Learning Difficulties

2017

The present study was designed to examine the effects of feedback conditions on learning and motivation of children identified with mathematical learning difficulties (MLDs). The performance of 76 fifth grade children on computational math skills and related task motivation was assessed. The groups of children were randomly assigned to one of two treatment conditions: immediate corrective feedback or delayed conventional feedback on two occasions. Results showed that children performed significantly better when they were provided with the immediate corrective feedback than when they were provided with the delayed conventional feedback. The findings suggest that provision of the immediate co…

Using Electronic Materials in the EFL Classroom: 8th Graders’ Views on the Motivational Aspect of E-materials

2018

Uusien opetussuunnitelmien ja teknologian edistymisen myötä sähköisten oppimateriaalien rooli eri luokka-asteilla alakoulusta lukioon on kasvanut melko keskeiseksi. Kyseisiä materiaaleja hyödyntämällä päästään lähemmäksi paitsi perusopetuksen myös lukion opetussuunnitelmaan kirjattuja tavoitteita, joiden mukaan oppilaiden ja opiskelijoiden tulisi muun muassa harjoittaa tieto- ja viestintäteknisiä taitojaan muun oppimisen ohella oppiaineessa kuin oppiaineessa. Aikaisempaa tutkimusta aiheesta on tehty vielä melko vähänlaisesti, ja toisaalta olemassaolevat tutkimukset ovat pääasiallisesti keskittyneet opettajien mielipiteisiin ja näkemyksiin sähköisten materiaalien käytöstä oppitunneilla.

2014

En este trabajo se presenta una investigación descriptiva que muestra las relaciones entre cinco factores motivacionales y estratégicos (planificación, estrategias cognitivas, autocontrol, esfuerzo y autoeficacia) y el rendimiento en la resolución de problemas.
