Our research is aimed to explore and understand the effects of remote learning on students. More specifically, we are studying how the change in environment and shift to online learning affect college ...

Intrinsic motivation, the internal drive to engage in activities for their inherent satisfaction, is a fundamental aspect of effective learning. This concept, rooted in the principles of ...

What can we learn from human psychology about designing learning environments geared for maximum motivation? Let’s start by identifying core human motivations using Maslow’s Hierarchy of Human Needs.

Motivation is everywhere in education. We’re told to cultivate it, sustain it, and assess it as if learning couldn’t happen without it. It’s common to hear that students need to be supported, inspired ...

Intrinsic motivation, a concept drawn from behavioural science, has gained significant traction in robotic research as a means to stimulate exploratory behaviour in the absence of explicit external ...

One theory contrasts implicit and explicit motivation. When we are implicitly motivated, we learn because we find the subject fascinating, because we want to achieve mastery of the subject or because ...
