http://www.uky.edu/~eushe2/Pajares/03SchunkMeeceAdoEd5.pdf

I skimmed it and it seems like it could be useful...Also, I got a book from the library called "Differentiation for the Adolescent Learner" which has a few pages of condensed info on motivation. I can bring it to tomorrow's class for you to have a look. Hope the article at least gets you started!

videos/TED talks that would be relevant to boys in Home Economics?

Or the issue of boys feeling pressured to display masculinity? I know it's

unlikely, but just thought I would check!

I can email it to you if you cant find it. Vojnovich, Christine M. Improving Student Motivation in the Secondary Classroom

through the Use of Critical Thinking Skills, Cooperative Learning Techniques, and Reflective Journal Writing.

Because if you split students into groups, they would either compete against people in their own group or compete against other group. Competitiveness is a source of motivation. I think the co-operative ness will come along with group work. How are you planning assess/evaluate the "cooperative learning"?

learning and competitive learning styles. But what I'm thinking is when I contrsuct

cooperative learning activities in groups, there may still be a sense of competitiveness

between groups :S But I guess I can just talk about that in limitations?
