Perceived learning environment and students' emotional experiences: A multilevel analysis of mathematics classrooms.
TL;DR: Heckhausen et al. as discussed by the authors used a multilevel approach to analyse relationships between perceived classroom environments and emotions in mathematics and found that environmental characteristics conveying control and value to the students would be related to their experience of enjoyment, anxiety, anger, and boredom in mathematics.

TL;DR: In this paper, the authors analyzed pupils' drawings to find out what kind of collective emotional atmosphere dominates in fifth-graders' mathematics lessons, based on which they used a holistic evaluation of emotional atmosphere during mathematics lessons.
Abstract: The aim of this study, based on pupils’ drawings, is to find out what kind of collective emotional atmosphere dominates in fifth-graders’ mathematics lessons. Pupils’ (N = 136) drawings were analyzed using a holistic evaluation of emotional atmosphere during mathematics lesson. Even though the collective emotional atmosphere in mathematics lesson is positive in the total data, there are large differences among the different classrooms. In most of the classrooms the emotional atmosphere could be described more or less as ambivalent (there are both positive and negative facial or other expressions). In two classrooms the emotional atmosphere could be described as positive and only in one as neutral. The differences between the classrooms are thus large. Based on our data, it can be said that asking pupils to do drawings is a good and many-sided method to collect data about the collective emotional atmosphere of a teaching group.

TL;DR: In this paper, the authors analyzed, relate, and compare learning strategies and academic performance of students from a neuropsychological perspective, and found that the use of strategies was related to enhanced academic performance for all the students.

TL;DR: In this paper, the authors focus on the benefits of using whole-class dialogues in the classroom environment and the need for training for teachers and students to participate in such dialogues.

TL;DR: In this article, the authors investigated the relationship between perceived characteristics of learning environments (social climate, support, autonomy, self-reflection) and students' metacognitive strategy knowledge (MSK).
Abstract: There is evidence that students benefit from teachers’ explicit fostering of metacognitive strategy knowledge (MSK). However, there is insufficient understanding about the effect of implicit promotion of MSK in regular school instruction. This study investigates the relationship between perceived characteristics of learning environments (social climate, support, autonomy, self-reflection) and students’ MSK. A representative cohort of students ( N t1 = 1,272/ N t2 = 1,126) in Grades 10 and 11 at schools at the upper secondary education level (ISCED Level 3A) in Switzerland participated in this two-wave longitudinal study. Multilevel analysis showed effects on both the individual and the class level. Students who experienced higher social integration showed a higher extent of MSK at the beginning of the school year than students who experienced less social integration. Perceived autonomy was also positively related to students’ MSK on the individual level. In contrast, the results showed a negative relationship between perceived self-reflection and students’ MSK. On the class level, there was a negative relationship between self-reflection and students’ MSK. Teachers’ support did not correlate with students’ MSK on either the individual or the class level. Implications of these results for education and further studies are discussed.

TL;DR: In this paper, the authors examined the role of individual preparedness, member's contribution, motivation, enjoyment in students' learning, readiness for interprofessional learning, and attainment of desired outcomes in the context of computer-supported interprofessional team-based learning (CS-IPTBL).
Abstract: Abstract Adopting Biggs' (2003) 3P (presage, process, product) model, this study examined the role of individual preparedness, member's contribution, motivation, enjoyment in students' learning, readiness for interprofessional learning, and attainment of desired outcomes in the context of computer-supported interprofessional team-based learning (CS-IPTBL). A sample of 531 health and social care students (Chinese medicine, medicine, nursing, pharmacy, occupational therapy, and social work) from two universities in Hong Kong participated in the study. Mediational analysis showed that task value (motivation and enjoyment) and utility (perceived usefulness) played a significant mediating role between perceived preparedness and perceived individual contribution and outcomes. The study enriched the extant research by showing possible pathways that determined students' achievement in CS-IPTBL. Findings suggest that students' achievement (product) in CS-IPTBL is influenced by their motivation, enjoyment, and perceived usefulness (process) which were derived from two sources: individual preparedness and members' valuable contribution (presage). Key findings and their implications for program enhancement and teaching are provided.

TL;DR: For a long time, the authors have had the gnawing desire to convey the broad motivational significance of the attributional conception that I have espoused and to present fully the argument that this framework has earned a rightful place alongside other leading theories of motivation.
Abstract: For a long time I have had the gnawing desire to convey the broad motivational sig nificance of the attributional conception that I have espoused and to present fully the argument that this framework has earned a rightful place alongside other leading theories of motivation. Furthermore, recent investigations have yielded insights into the attributional determinants of affect, thus providing the impetus to embark upon a detailed discussion of emotion and to elucidate the relation between emotion and motivation from an attributional perspective. The presentation of a unified theory of motivation and emotion is the goal of this book. My more specific aims in the chapters to follow are to: 1) Outline the basic princi ples that I believe characterize an adequate theory of motivation; 2) Convey what I perceive to be the conceptual contributions of the perspective advocated by my col leagues and me; 3) Summarize the empirical relations, reach some definitive con clusions, and point out the more equivocal empirical associations based on hypotheses derived from our particular attribution theory; and 4) Clarify questions that have been raised about this conception and provide new material for still further scrutiny. In so doing, the building blocks (if any) laid down by the attributional con ception will be readily identified and unknown juries of present and future peers can then better determine the value of this scientific product."
