New Approaches to the Study of Engaging and Motivating Classroom Instruction

Sat, April 15, 8:00 to 9:30am CDT (8:00 to 9:30am CDT), Hyatt Regency Chicago, Floor: West Tower - Ballroom Level, Atlanta

Session Type: Symposium

Abstract

An extensive body of research has converged to emphasize the importance of teachers’ instruction and highlight a long list of practices that can shape students’ motivation and engagement (Linnenbrink et al., 2016). The purpose of this symposium is to highlight recent developments in our understanding of motivating and engaging classroom instruction. Using diverse methods, samples, and approaches, the session will collectively address: (1) to what extent teachers are using engaging practices and why, (2) how engaging practices are encouraged amongst teachers, (3) evidence for approaches to motivating and engaging instruction that incorporate multicultural perspectives, and (4) what new methodological approaches might the field use to study teachers’ motivating practice. Overall, the session will provide an up-to-date perspective on engaging instruction.
