Achievement Motivation: Recent Trends in Theory and Research
by FyansThis book started as a symposium on Achievement Motiva tion at the 1978 American Educational Research Association Convention. The participants in that symposium were Jack Atkinson, Martin Maehr, Dick De Charms, Joel Raynor, and Dave Hunt. The subsequent response to that symposium indicated a "coming of age" for motivation theory in terms of education. Soon afterward, at a Motivation in Education Conference at University of Michigan, Ann Arbor, it became apparent that due to this emergence of motivation what was needed was a comprehensive perspective as to the state of the art of achievement theory. Achievement theory had by now well surpassed its beginnings in the 1950s and 1960s and was ready for a composite presentation and profile of the recent research and theories of motivation. Thus, this volume was born. I would like to take this opportunity to thank each contribu tor to this book as well as Robert L. Linn who critically reviewed several of the manuscripts. Thanks are also due to my former graduate advisors, Martin L. Maehr, Maurice Tatsuoka, and Harry Triandis, for the viewpoints given me in graduate school education which I hope have benefitted this under taking. Joyce Fitch did a splendid joh typing many of these chapters and special gratitude should be given to Judy Cadle of Professional Services, Inc. for the composition and proofing of this book.

Achieving College Dreams: How a University-Charter District Partnership Created an Early College High School
by Rhona S. Weinstein Frank C. WorrellAchieving College Dreams: How a University-Charter District Partnership Created an Early College High School tells the story of a remarkable 10-year collaboration between the University of California, Berkeley and Aspire Public Schools to develop and nurture the California College Preparatory Academy. Bridging the two cultures--artfully described as "Pac-Man (the charter district) meets chess (the university)"--the school serves as an exemplar in providing low-income and first-generation college youth with an excellent and equitable education. Framed by a longitudinal lens, findings from community-engaged scholarship, and a diversity of voices from students to superintendents, this book charts the journey from the initial decision to open a school to the high school graduation of its first two classes. The book captures struggle, improvement, and success as it takes readers inside the workings of the partnership, the development of the school, and the spillover of effects across district and university. Confronting the challenge of interweaving rigor and support, its authors explore such critical ingredients as teacher-student advisories; school transition; the home-school divide; building a supportive college-preparatory culture; teaching with depth, relational power, and equity; the forging of an academic identity; and scaling up. At a time of sharply unequal schools, glaring disparities in college readiness, and heightened expectations, Achieving College Dreams uniquely extends the knowledge base about how to better prepare underserved students for college eligibility and success. The book also calls for universities to step up to the plate as partners with districts to ensure both excellence and equity in secondary education for all children.

Achieving Quality of Life at Work: Transforming Spaces to Improve Well-Being
by Suhana Mohezar Noor Ismawati Jaafar Waqar AkbarThis book provides an understanding and imaging of how a stress-free workplace might be designed and implemented in the context of the ‘new normal.’ Statistics show that more and more people are experiencing an increase in work-related stress, and its impact on individual psychology and well-being as well as organizational performance can be devastating. Globally, the most recent data on work-related illnesses account for 2.4 million deaths. Against this backdrop, and taking stock of how the pandemic is affecting the workplace and employee well-being, this book proposes transformations in work spaces, from implementing effective “greening” features, to more efficient technology-supported spaces. It establishes links between workplace design and creativity, happiness and productivity, confronting related issues such as generation gaps, digital interruptions, collaborative work environments and sustainability, and their respective connections with workspace environment and well-being. The book situates this discussion within a broader discussion on work and quality of life. Furthermore, the book demonstrates how several sustainable development goals might be achieved through transformed work spaces. Through an intersection between organizational psychology, well-being and quality of life studies, sociology, human resources, and ergonomics, this book is a timely examination of work-related stress in relation to work spaces that require rethinking and transformation in the throes, and wake, of the pandemic.
Achieving Sustainable Workplace Wellbeing (Aligning Perspectives on Health, Safety and Well-Being)
by Kevin Daniels Olga Tregaskis Rachel Nayani David WatsonIn this groundbreaking interdisciplinary work, the authors focus on organizational analysis to understand workplace wellbeing, deviating from previous research that mostly looks at the individual worker or intervention. In addressing the question of why workplace health and wellbeing practices initiatives fall short of delivering sustained improvements in worker wellbeing, this book moves beyond localized explanations of the failure of specific interventions. Instead, it creates theoretical frameworks that explain how wellbeing at work can be improved and sustained. The authors use evidence from systematic and comprehensive surveys of the literature as well as new empirical research, and present an explanatory framework of the processes through which organizations change to implement and accommodate workplace health and wellbeing practices. Learning, adaptation and continuation explain successful implementation of workplace health and wellbeing practices, while Gestalting, fracturing and grafting explain how organizations resolve or negotiate conflict between health and wellbeing practices and existing organizational procedures, systems and practices. In addition, the authors reflect on the implications for research of reframing the unit of analysis as the organization and how studies on workplace wellbeing practices can provide a conceptual platform for thinking about the way organizations can create social value in a broader sense. This book, authored by experts in their field, is a great resource for academics and professionals of organizational studies and of worker wellbeing across the social sciences, behavioural sciences, business and management courses, wellbeing research, and labour studies.
Achieving Teaching Quality in Sub-Saharan Africa: Empirical Results from Cascade Training
by Sarah LangeSarah Lange examines the effectiveness of cascade training, which constitutes a cost-effective training model in teacher training. In development cooperation countries, teaching quality is expected to improve with teacher professional development; for this purpose, she explores the effectiveness of training multipliers in schools in Cameroon. This research question is analysed with a design, which encompasses a questionnaire survey provided to teachers, students and principals as well as a teacher video survey and a student achievement test. The empirical results show the effects of cascade training on the learner-oriented teaching practice, if the trained teachers are supported in their role as change agents. Among the conditions for the conceptual quality and the implementation of cascade training, the continuity of school-based professional development is particularly emphasized in light of the results.
The Achilles of Rationalist Psychology (Studies in the History of Philosophy of Mind #7)
by Thomas M. Lennon Robert J. StaintonIn his Second Paralogism of the Critique of Pure Reason, Kant described what he called the "Achilles of all dialectical inferences in the pure doctrine of the soul". This argument, which he took to be powerful yet fatally flawed, purports to establish the simplicity of the human mind, or soul, on the basis of the unity of consciousness. It is the aim of this volume to treat the major figures who have advanced the Achilles argument, or who have held views bearing on it.
Achtsam einsam sein: Ein interdisziplinärer Überblick über die Kunst der inneren Unabhängigkeit
by Hans-Arved WillbergIn diesem populären Fachbuch werden die Chancen des Alleinseins und der Einsamkeit für die persönliche Entwicklung und die eigene psychische Gesundheit aufgezeigt. Denn Einsamkeit ist nicht dasselbe wie Vereinsamung. Vereinsamung schwächt die psychophysische Konstitution und kann krank machen. Aber Einsamkeit kann auch die Gesundheit stärken. Einsamkeit gehört zu den notwendigen menschlichen Reifungserfahrungen und birgt Quellen für Kreativität. Dieses Buch differenziert die gesunde Einsamkeit von der kränkenden und krank machenden Einsamkeit. Erkenntnisse aus Psychologie und Sozialwissenschaften geben einen interdisziplinären Überblick über die Phänomene Einsamkeit und Vereinsamung, beschreiben das menschliche Bedürfnis nach Nähe und Distanz, konzentrieren sich aber darauf, welche Ressourcen im Alleinsein liegen: Wie komme ich zu mir selbst? Und wie bleibe ich dort, wenn ständig Eindrücke weiterer Menschen auf mich einwirken? Wie bewahre ich meine eigene Würde? Wie finde ich durch bewusste Distanz und Achtsamkeit zu mehr persönlicher Kreativität? Dieses Buch für Fachpersonen aus Psychologie, Psychotherapie, Beratung und Pädagogik macht Mut, sich die Quellen gesunder Einsamkeit zu erschließen und gibt Hinweise darauf, wie das geschehen kann.
