Seminar II:    
Title of Presentation: Sociocultural Perspectives on Academic Regulation and Identity: Theoretical issues.
Thurs 2/10/08  ,12:30 p.m. – 1:30 p.m. , D2-LP-08

Abstract

While self-regulation has mostly been theorised and researched from a social cognitive perspective, self-regulation researchers have recently given greater consideration to the sociocultural context of their research. Concurrently, self-regulation researchers have begun to give some consideration to the relationship between self-regulation and the learner’s sense of identity. In recent years self-regulation has been considered from an explicitly sociocultural perspective but the theoretical analysis has been limited in scope. This presentation aims to examine and analyse, from a sociocultural perspective, theoretical issues of relevance to both self-regulation and identity formation, as well as to the interrelationship between them.

Seminar I:     
Title of Presentation: Sociocultural Issues in Motivation
Wed. 17/9/08    12:30 p.m. – 1:30 p.m. , D3-LP-01

Abstract

Until recently motivation has been considered to be an individual phenomenon with theories of motivation conceptualizing key constructs in individualistic terms. Recently this individual conceptualization has been questioned as theorists have suggested, after Vygotsky, that motivation is social in nature. Sociocultural researchers have consequently attempted to explain how motivational goals, values, standards and interests are socially constructed, and how they emerge and develop from social interactions and are manifested in collaborative and individual action. The understanding of motivation as social in nature involves complex issues concerning the relationship between the social world and the world of the individual. This presentation examines meta-theoretical and theoretical issues relating to the social construction of motivation and presents several debates that have taken place in the literature
