Lawanto, Oenardi; Santoso, Harry B.; Liu, Yang – Educational Technology & Society, 2012
In this study, the relationship between students' interest in engineering design activities and their expectancy for success in grades 9-12 was evaluated. The theoretical frameworks developed by Eccles and colleagues (i.e., expectancy value) and Butler and Cartier (i.e., what the students bring to contexts under a self-regulated learning…
