The purpose of this study was to increase motivation in 7th grade students. Four teacher researchers examined the change in motivational levels as a result of choice strategies. They gathered data from four different classes, 101 students in all, to track levels of motivation. They monitored their levels of observable behavioral patterns with a checklist to see if motivation affected students' performance in the classroom. A student survey was given pre-intervention which asked questions based on student opinion of how they felt regarding choice in the classroom. The last data gathering tool that was used were student reflection questions. These reflection questions asked students to write out how they interpret choices in the classroom according to grouping, curriculum, homework, and assessments. Interventions were then implemented on a weekly basis. Students were offered four types of choices: group choice, curriculum choice, assignment choice, and assessment choice. Reflection questions were given to the students prior to each intervention as well as after to determine their overall attitudes toward choice. The results of the post intervention data was compared with the baseline data to see if progress was made. The results showed that by giving the students choice in the above mentioned areas, there was an increase in student motivation to some degree. One substantial difference between pre and post-intervention in the area of curriculum, showed that when students were given more choices, 38% of the students felt they were able to utilize their strengths, which also created more success and enjoyment in the classroom. Another major difference between pre and post-intervention in the area of choosing groups showed that 58 students said they chose groups according to friends, and 36 chose their groups based on ability levels when only 13 chose their groups based on ability level pre-intervention. We concluded that validating middle school students' desire freedom through the offering of choice produced more positive behaviors and an increase of self-motivation. It is our recommendation that the knowledge gained in this study be used by other educators to create successful students. Six appendixes are included: (1) Student Survey; (2) Pre/Post Participation Checklist; (3) Pre/Post Reflection Journal Questions: Curriculum; (4) Pre/Post Reflection Journal Questions: Group; (5) Pre/Post Reflection Journal Questions: Homework; and (6) Pre/Post Reflection Journal Questions: Assessment. (Contains 69 figures and 1 table.).

When it comes to motivating people to learn, disadvantaged urban adolescents are usually perceived as a hard sell. Yet, in a recent MetLife survey, 89 percent of the low-income students claimed "I really want to learn" applied to them. What is it about the school environmentâ€"pedagogy, curriculum, climate, organizationâ€"that encourages or discourages engagement in school activities? How do peers, family, and community affect adolescents' attitudes towards learning? Engaging Schools reviews current research on what shapes adolescents' school engagement and motivation to learnâ€"including new findings on students' sense of belongingâ€"and looks at ways these can be used to reform urban high schools. This book discusses what changes hold the greatest promise for increasing students' motivation to learn in these schools. It looks at various approaches to reform through different methods of instruction and assessment, adjustments in school size, vocational teaching, and other key areas. Examples of innovative schools, classrooms, and out-of-school programs that have proved successful in getting high school kids excited about learning are also included.

“What a learned-centered perspective and model helps educators understand is that individual learners, young and old, students and teachers—like all human beings—bring with them a complex array of unique viewpoints, needs, capacities, and strengths. At the same time, they share certain fundamental qualities. The inherent need to grow, live, and develop in a positive direction, for example, is common to all learners. What best supports these inherent capacities and distinctive characteristics? To find out, we asked students and educators what they thought produced the highest levels of learning in not only academic areas but also personal, social, and vocational realms.”—from the Preface The Learner-Centered Classroom and School shows educators and administrators how they can create classrooms and schools that foster student motivation, learning, and achievement. The learner-centered approach provides a dual focus on both learner and learning. It focuses on learners by respecting them, trusting them to be responsible for their own learning, and designing practices that are sensitive to individual needs, abilities, and interests. It focuses on learning by designing practices that help students meet high academic standards in challenging, personally relevant, and important content areas. The book is filled with useful examples and practical suggestions for implementing learner-centered concepts in any school or classroom. It will help educators examine beliefs and assumptions related to learner-centered practices and make changes that enhance student motivation and achievement.

Keeping students interested in school and motivating them to succeed are challenges that even the most experienced teachers face every year. A host of student variables can lead to low levels of motivation, but research indicates that educational settings also influence motivation levels. Some studies have found that motivation is a stronger predictor of student success than grades or achievement and aptitude tests. Therefore, it is imperative that educators use effective motivational strategies. This Information Capsule summarizes 20 research-based strategies that have been found to increase student motivation. Brief explanations of motivational theory and the difference between intrinsic and extrinsic motivation are also provided.
