Economic, social and political disruption, financial recession,
international migration and rapid technological advancements have
produced major changes throughout the world regarding the
availability and access to knowledge, human communication, social
relationships, learning and education. As socioeconomic,
sociodemographic and sociocultural conditions are constantly
changing in parallel with rapid scientific and technological
progress, learning environments are also evolving. The increased
complexity of educational processes calls for new research and
theoretical inquiry to address how these global changes affect
education, schools and academic learning. This volume in the
Advances in Motivation and Achievement Series is dedicated to the
role of motivation in that process. The fundamental assumption of
the volume is that, on the one hand, change and challenge have a
significant impact on students' and educators' motivation to learn
and achieve and, on the other hand, motivation can have a
significant impact on students' and educators' capacity to cope
with change and challenge effectively. This book opens up a
dialogue on how to support achievement motivation in challenging
times as a means for successful academic trajectories and positive
adaptation to school. Internationally leading researchers provide a
critical understanding of the role of current motivational theories
during unsettling times, discuss a number of challenges affecting
motivation in education, and indicate potential implications of
motivational theory and research for educational practice.
