Subclaims¶

q1 i? The primary sources of confusion in translating motivation research into practice are the clash between student-centered research findings and the policies, directives, and institutional cultures regulating teachers, rather than differences among research perspectives. → Richard M. Ryan 2024

Evidence¶

Richard M. Ryan 2024¶

Richard M. Ryan. (2024). Comments on Integration, Theory Conflicts, and Practical Implementations: Some Contrarian Ideas for Consideration. Educational Psychology Review. https://doi.org/10.1007/s10648-024-09858-1

q1 · i? · theoretical · r2

The author's contrarian argument, supported by examples such as mandated curricula at fixed pace and evaluative grading that conflict with learner-centered practices, and an anecdotal letter from a Belgian teacher describing an "extraordinary gap between evidence and practice". No systematic data are presented.

"the primary sources of confusion and incoherence for translating our work into educational practice are less our differing research perspectives, but rather the clash between what we know as educational researchers and the policies, directives, and institutional cultures that regulate teachers’ classroom behaviors and goals."
