Exploring the Meaning and Function of Learner Intent (Paperback)

Understanding how learner intent affects learning is vital for educators and participants involved in any learning situation. This study explains and explores the concept of a learner intent for students involved in online learning situations. The results of this study show that the intentions of students for the learning expected of them affects the quality of the learning that occurs. What may be missing in many learning situations is students reflecting on themselves as learners, specifically, reflecting on their true intentions for learning. Reflective reasoning, thinking about one's commitment to learning and the quality of that learning, can be a catalyst in the formation of efficacious learner intent. This understanding is central to the identification of effective strategies for encouraging students to develop worthy learner intent leading to increased learning.
