Title: Taking the time to think about lack of time promising approaches to reduce motivational conflicts
Author: Surprenant, Rachel; Cabot, Isabelle
Abstract: "Academic success is one of the main concerns in the field of education,
if not THE main concern. In the never-ending quest to improve student
success, an important pool of the scientific literature in this field focuses
on one of its important predictors: engagement (Lei et al., 2018). Gener ally speaking, engagement represents personal investment in a task
and includes behavioural, affective and cognitive dimensions (Fredricks
et al., 2004). An engaged student devotes time and energy to academic
tasks (Conseil supérieur de l’éducation (CSE), 2008). By conducting a
study on the lack of engagement in physical activity, the authors of this
article have come to reflect more specifically on college students’ per ception of time and their use of time. New pedagogical approaches are
emerging from this ongoing reflective process. The purpose of this ar ticle is to present our initial reflections and to invite readers to pursue
them... to see if an interesting vein of thought might emerge, leading to
new ideas for pedagogical practices to be tested in all disciplines." -- AQPC
