Influences on students' learning goals and their capacity for self-regulation

最大限度地提高年轻人的学习能力与国家的未来之间有着明显的联系。目前，许多年轻人失去了在学校学习的机会，这不仅减少了他们自己的机会，从而增加了他们长期依赖政府服务的风险，而且减少了整体社会资本。该项目将评估有可能提高学生在中学阶段学习参与度的教学策略。 该项目将直接惠及区域和农村社区，因为该项目是在区域和农村学校开展的，这些学校面临着特殊的挑战，包括社区悲观主义、职业抱负降低和榜样有限。

There is an obvious connection between maximizing learning of young people and the nation's future. Currently many young people are missing opportunities for learning at school, and this not only reduces their own opportunities, thereby increasing their risk of long term dependence on government services, but also reduces overall social capital. The project will evaluate teaching strategies that have potential to enhance the participation of students in learning in the middle years. The project will be of direct benefit to regional and rural communities since it is conducted in regional and rural schools with their particular challenges, including community pessimism, reduced vocational aspirations, and limited role models.
