L’impact des pratiques scolaires d’évalution sur les motivations et le concept de soi des élèves

Abstract

Studied 240 fifth and sixth graders to see if evaluation practices of teachers have an effect on student goal orientation and self-concept. Teachers completed questionnaires on evaluation practices while the students completed a measure of motivational orientation and a measure of self-concept. Evaluation practices of teachers do impact student motivation and self-concept. Task orientation had a positive association with all self-concept areas except math which was closely related to ego orientation. (PsycINFO Database Record (c) 2012 APA, all rights reserved)
