The Motivated Classroom Podcast

This episode focusses on 'competence', one of the three basic needs of Self-Determination Theory that we need satisfied in order to feel intrinsically motivated. Competence relates not to a student’s individual ability but to their perception about their capability and capacity to achieve success in the classroom. Central to the notion of competence, is that students will only engage in and personally value classroom activities they can fully understand and potentially master.

After an introduction to the research behind the need of 'competence' in the classroom, a variety of practical approaches to building competence in the classroom are presented. For full details a list of these strategies, check out the programme notes with further information and links to research and resources at www.liamprinter.com/podcast.
