The Psychology of Academic Achievement Motivation: An Introduction: Achievment Motivation

A review of current educational issues related to academic achievement motivation and how motivation can be linked to psychological theory. Ideas such as social learning, learned helplessness, and community connections can be linked to academic achievement. In addition, traditional ideas such as parental influence and socio-economic status have less to do with internal motivation then once thought as we need to understand the complex nature of internal success. We explore what makes the difference between those who are motivated to achieve academically and those who are not.

Breaking Into the Heart of Character: Self-Determined Moral Action and Academic Motivation

The moral failures that made the headlines over the past decade did not take place because the guilty parties did not know the right thing to do, or because they did not know how to do the right thing. Too many ethical lapses took place, and take place, because someone just did not feel like acting for the common good. What helps kids feel like doing the right thing? Breaking into the Heart of Character outlines a compelling case with documented strategies that get past character talk and improve character action. Compiling evidence-based practices, this book focuses on educators’ ability to catalyze internal motivation, and promote social growth and moral climates. The practices outlined in this book can be implemented by every teacher, in every class, every day.

African American Children: A Self-Empowerment Approach to Modifying Behavior Problems and Preventing Academic Failure

There is increasing concern across the nation among individuals of all social classes and ethnic groups about the academic failure and behavioral problems that occur among many African-American children. The inability to reduce and prevent failure and behavior problems of African-American children is most likely due to the fact that the efforts to do so have been based on experiences and research with Caucasian American children, and on practices that are culturally insensitive to the specific needs and learning styles of African-American children. The major purpose of this book is to offer a new, culturally-sensitive, socioeconomic-sensitive, research-based, practical approach to addressing academic and behavioral problems of African- American children. This approach is anchored in self-empowerment theory which suggests that African-American children must receive encouragement in self-motivation, self-praise, and adaptive skills that will spur academic and social success. .
