Self-determined Learning Theory: Construction, Verification, and Evaluation: The LEA Series on Special Education and Disability

Editat de Deirdre K. Mithaug, Martin Agran, James E. Martin, Michael L. Wehmeyer
en Limba Engleză Paperback – 7 mai 2015
This volume brings together four semi-autonomous bodies of research (choice, self-determination, self-regulation, and self-management) to form a new theory of self-engaged learning entitled, Self-Determined Learning Theory. This theory explains why and how students self-engage. It identifies the factors that give students the sense of control over their learning that is needed for sustained, adaptive, and ultimately successful learning. It begins by describing the characteristics of disengaged learners, then describes and illustrates self-determined learning theory within both normal and special populations. It then examines the theory's predictive value across several special population contexts and then concludes with a critique of the theory's credibility and worth.

Divided into three sections--theory construction, theory verification, and theory evaluation--this volume is organized using the four steps of a previous book, Learning to Theorize: A Four Step Strategy. Step 1 defines a problem of not understanding something as discrepancy between what is known and not known about a circumstance. Step 2 searches for information and explanations to change the condition of not knowing into a condition of knowing. Step 3 evaluates the credibility and worth of the explanation constructed in Step 2. Step 4 adjusts existing beliefs so they are consistent with the new theory.

Although aimed primarily at leaders in special education, it should also appeal to researchers and scholars in psychology, educational psychology, and school psychology who are interested in the applications of self-regulated learning theory--in this case to special populations.

Recenzii

"The volume brings together four semi-autonomous bodies of research (choice, self-determination, self-regulation, and self-management) to form a new theory of self-engaged learning entitled self-determined learning theory. Although aimed primarily at leaders in special education, it should also appeal to researchers and scholars in psychology, educational psychology, and school psychology who are interested in the applications of self-regulated learning theory - in this case, to special populations."

"This book fills a gap in other presentations about self-regulation by providing greater emphasis on special populations. The theoretical model and its potential application to special populations are definite strengths of the book."
Phil Winne
Simon Fraser University
"The topics of self-regulation, engagement, and determination are important and timely as well as under-represented in the scholarly literature. I know and admire the work of the co-editors. I would very much like to have it included in our series on Special Education and Disability."
John Lloyd
University of Virginia
