TAP 141 - Self Determination Theory in the Elementary Music Classroom


Listen Later

In this episode, Anne discusses Self Determination Theory & Singing Games in the Elementary Music Classroom. This episode was inspired by some light research for improving students motivation and participation, particularly as students reach those upper elementary grades. By considering the three pillars of SDT: autonomy, competence, and relatedness, we can better promote student engagement in our classrooms.
