Autonomy-supportive teaching - applications of self-determination theory in the classroom.
Year: 2024
Type: article
Abstract: School is one of the key environments for meeting the needs of pupils, and functioning in a school setting translates into the well-being of children and young people. More than 50 years of research on self-determination theory (SDT) conducted by its founders - Edward L. Deci and Richard M. Ryan - as well as researchers focused on validating the concept's assumptions - has allowed the identification of factors that foster students' social development and educational achievement. The practical implications of SDT equip teachers with an evidence-based perspective of the classroom and the tools to work effectively considering the realities of the educational process.
