"Unlocking the Dynamics of Student Choice: A Classroom Experiment Turned Learning Opportunity"
In this insightful episode, we delve into a real-world classroom experiment at Thammasat University's Digital Strategies class. Faced with four distinct projects, students were tasked with self-selecting groups based on skills and interests, but their choices revealed something deeper. Why did certain projects attract crowds while others were left untouched? What do these choices tell us about motivation, fear, peer pressure, and the complexities of educational dynamics?
Join us as we analyze the unexpected outcomes, reflect on key lessons learned, and explore renowned educational principles such as Self-Determination Theory, Deci & Ryan's Theory of Autonomy, and Tuckman's stages of group development. From the classroom's vibrant energy to a broader reflection on pedagogical strategies, this episode offers a rich exploration of group selection, student engagement, and innovative teaching methods.
Whether you're an educator seeking to engage diverse learners, a student curious about the psychology of choice, or simply interested in the multifaceted nature of learning, this episode invites you to reflect, learn, and apply insights in your context. Tune in and explore the fascinating world of educational dynamics, classroom resilience, and the art of guiding without dictating.
