The Missing Link in School Reform: Student Motivation
http://www.theatlantic.com/national/archive/2012/05/the-missing-link-in-school-reform-student-motivation/257770/It is about time that this was re-discovered...once again. For those interested, check out the Model of Academic Motivation and Competence (MACM) that I proposed during the early days of NCLB. The model, reports, PPT slides, etc. can be found under the Beyond IQ section of Research and Reports section at the MindHub. Other scholars in school psychology have been hammering away on this broad and important domain for years (Reynold's SMALSI instrument; Diperna and Elliott's ACES instrument and model, to name but a few)
A series of blog posts related to "Beyond IQ" can also be found at IQs Corner via this link.
