New generation psychology advances in science motivation and engagement

在学校内外的科学参与和表现出现惊人下降之后，该项目旨在利用教育心理学、生理心理学和神经心理学，在科学动机和参与方面发展“新一代”进步。基于心理学移动数据捕获的最新发展，该项目将确定与学校科学学科成果相关的学生动机和参与的关键因素。全面了解动机和参与，就有可能进行有效干预以促进结果。加强社会研究和创新的动力和参与，可以提高一个国家的竞争力，并优化学生的潜力。

Following alarming declines in science participation and performance at school and beyond, this project aims to harnesses educational psychology, physiological psychology, and neuro-psychology, to develop “new generation” advances in science motivation and engagement. Building on latest developments in mobile data capture in psychology, the project will identify key elements of student motivation and engagement associated with outcomes in school-based scientific disciplines. With a comprehensive understanding of motivation and engagement, effective intervention to boost outcomes is possible. Enhancing the motivation and engagement that underpins research and innovation in society can enhance a nation’s competitiveness and optimise students’ potential.
