Pre-service Teachers’ Perspectives: Motivation, Emotions, and Life in General

Abstract

Description

Dr. Lia Daniels (University of Alberta) and Professor Robert Klassen (The University of York, UK), and a research team of graduate students were interested in exploring motivation and emotions as experienced by university students. The purpose of this study was to collect quantitative data on three related constructs: motivation, emotions, and life goals. It is broadly grounded in Arnett’s (2010) Emerging Adulthood Theory (http://www.jeffreyarnett.com/index.htm), which suggests that adolescence is expanding well into the 20s and thus shaping motivation, emotions, and life goals in different ways.
