Brief Abstract
Motivation plays a central role in the adult learner’s ability to engage in classroom activities. This workshop explores recent findings in self-determination theory and introduces attendees to tools that can help them develop a motivational strategy as part of instructional planning.
Proposal
This workshop will explore three models of motivation theory: self-determination theory promoted by Edward L. Deci; the elements of motivation based on Daniel Pink’s research; and, the ARCS model of motivational design developed by John Keller. It proposes two possible instructional planning approaches – by applying Keller’s ARCS model and by shifting the balance of power proposed by Maryellen Weimer in “Learner-Centered Teaching: Five Key Changes to Practice.” It also briefly examines student resistance to motivational strategies.
This is a very interactive session. Participants will have an opportunity to collaboratively examine learning situations that increase and decrease motivation using the Socrative app on their mobile devices. They will also consider definitions of the three key components of self-determination theory (autonomy, competence, relatedness) in a think-pair-share activity. The session wraps up with a jigsaw team activity where each group answers three questions to collaboratively craft motivational strategies using the syllabus, in teaching and learning activities, and as part of feedback and assessment.
