Factors that affect motivation
• Expectancy– Certainty-When actual events are what
students expect, arousal is low- present the unexpected
– Time- Immediate expectancies are more likely to motivate than Intermediate or Remote.
– Desirability- Valence—expectancy of pleasure

expects to.
The student knows that he or
she can be successful but does not care.
The Student wants to succeed but

Factors that affect motivation
• Incentives– Symbolic– Material– Psychological
• Guidelines1. Use a variety of incentives
2. Individualiz incentives
3. Don’t use incentives when they are not needed
4. Provide incentives as soon as possible after the desired behavior

Assessing Reading Interests
• Use existing interests to attract students to your content
• General interest inventory
• Content interest inventory
![Page 7: Chapter 13 Student Attitudes: Encouraging Content Literacy.](https://reader036.fdocuments.in/reader036/viewer/2022071805/56649cd85503460f949a092f/html5/thumbnails/7.jpg)
Constructing a Content Interest Inventory
• Make a list of interesting subtopics
• Identify materials for each area
• Add a few blanks at the end of the inventory-open ended
• Word process the inventory
• Decide what form students’ responses will take.
![Page 8: Chapter 13 Student Attitudes: Encouraging Content Literacy.](https://reader036.fdocuments.in/reader036/viewer/2022071805/56649cd85503460f949a092f/html5/thumbnails/8.jpg)
Administering a Content Interest Inventory
• Make your purpose clear
• Read the inventory aloud as students respond
![Page 9: Chapter 13 Student Attitudes: Encouraging Content Literacy.](https://reader036.fdocuments.in/reader036/viewer/2022071805/56649cd85503460f949a092f/html5/thumbnails/9.jpg)
Interpreting the results
• Can be calculated like a GPA
• Interpret same way-3.0 being a strong attitude
![Page 10: Chapter 13 Student Attitudes: Encouraging Content Literacy.](https://reader036.fdocuments.in/reader036/viewer/2022071805/56649cd85503460f949a092f/html5/thumbnails/10.jpg)
Promoting Content Literacy
• No guarantees
![Page 11: Chapter 13 Student Attitudes: Encouraging Content Literacy.](https://reader036.fdocuments.in/reader036/viewer/2022071805/56649cd85503460f949a092f/html5/thumbnails/11.jpg)
Create a print-rich environment
• Classroom library
• Displaying books
• Quote of the day
![Page 12: Chapter 13 Student Attitudes: Encouraging Content Literacy.](https://reader036.fdocuments.in/reader036/viewer/2022071805/56649cd85503460f949a092f/html5/thumbnails/12.jpg)
Give students a chance to read
• Content area Sustained Silent Reading (SSR)
![Page 13: Chapter 13 Student Attitudes: Encouraging Content Literacy.](https://reader036.fdocuments.in/reader036/viewer/2022071805/56649cd85503460f949a092f/html5/thumbnails/13.jpg)
SSR Guidelines
1. Make the purpose of SSR clear2. Define acceptable materials3. Encourage students to select materials in advance4. Announce the time limit5. Prohibit studying6. Enforce silence7. Participate in SSR your self8. Avoid accountability9. Link SSR to the Content Literacy Interest inventory

Read alouds
• Brief selections
• Carefully chosen
• Nonfiction bet but don’t rule out fiction
![Page 15: Chapter 13 Student Attitudes: Encouraging Content Literacy.](https://reader036.fdocuments.in/reader036/viewer/2022071805/56649cd85503460f949a092f/html5/thumbnails/15.jpg)
Vary your teaching methods
• SLIGHT differences between what you do and what students expect can increase arousal
• Varying methods-graphic organizer one day, feature analysis another
![Page 16: Chapter 13 Student Attitudes: Encouraging Content Literacy.](https://reader036.fdocuments.in/reader036/viewer/2022071805/56649cd85503460f949a092f/html5/thumbnails/16.jpg)
Look for links with the lives of your students
• How does new material relate to student?
• If no other connection, – relate to coming events (quiz). – Ask students why they think an objective is
important
![Page 17: Chapter 13 Student Attitudes: Encouraging Content Literacy.](https://reader036.fdocuments.in/reader036/viewer/2022071805/56649cd85503460f949a092f/html5/thumbnails/17.jpg)
Provide choices where possible
• Make sure all the choices lead to your objective
• Advantages– Allows student to chose what has highest
valence for them– Power transfers tot eh student– Urges active engagement of student
![Page 18: Chapter 13 Student Attitudes: Encouraging Content Literacy.](https://reader036.fdocuments.in/reader036/viewer/2022071805/56649cd85503460f949a092f/html5/thumbnails/18.jpg)
Look for interdisciplinary connections
• Thematic planning-team
• Can still be done alone
