Motivation and emotion/Tutorials/Psychological needs/Instructor notes
Socratic method
[edit | edit source]- This tutorial uses the Socratic method to ask students open-ended questions about key concepts related to self-determination theory in relation to basic psychological needs and the taxonomy of extrinsic-intrinsic motivation
Needs
[edit | edit source]There are three basic models or ways of organising needs:
- 2-level: Physiological and psychological
- 3-level: Existence, relatedness, and growth (Alderfer)
- 5-level: Physiological, Safety, Belonging & love, Esteem, Self-actualisation (Maslow)
Basic psychological needs
[edit | edit source]According to self-determination theory, the basic psychological needs are:
- Autonomy
- Competence - could alternatively be called Mastery (see Pink video in lecture)
- Relatedness - could alternatively be called Purpose (see Pink video in lecture)
Topic development
[edit | edit source]- Remind about:
- the timeline (guidelines page shows days and hours remaining) - this is Census Day for a reason; to check-in whether you are on-track to succeed in the unit or consider withdrawing
- submit through UCLearn
- can continue editing afterwards (most recent version before due date will be used for marking purposes)
- Go over the checklist using an example chapter (pick one which has some development randomly from the list of topics and use this as a demo in terms of how well it satisfies the criteria and how it could improve if lacking)
