Motivation, Educational Policy and Achievement seeks to theorise
and critique current trends in education through the lens of key
ideas from motivational theory. Its purpose is to argue that
current educational trends on a macro level are a significant
threat to the provision of classroom practices seeking to create an
educational environment that motivational theorists would argue is
best placed to develop motivational equality, optimal motivation,
and wellbeing. Linking major contemporary theories of motivation to
wider educational and political debate, this unique resource will
bring about two major benefits: it will vocalise and mobilise the
substantial research evidence from motivational theory in order to
ensure that it contributes more explicitly to a critique of current
neoliberal trends, and motivation researchers will be better
positioned to move the theory forward in relation to what is
happening in the real world of education. Areas covered include:
developing a more critical space in relation to the field of
motivational psychology and contemporary educational policy;
linking motivational theory to education policy and broader social
and political structures; the neoliberal educational landscape; an
overview of achievement goal theory and self-determination theory.
Motivation, Educational Policy and Achievement is a 'wake-up call'
for educational practitioners and policy makers and essential
reading for all advanced students and researchers in the fields of
educational psychology and educational research.
