大四論文Motivation(Iris)
This document discusses intrinsic and extrinsic motivation in second language learning. It reviews literature showing intrinsic motivation is superior because it involves learning for personal goals and satisfaction rather than external rewards. The study examines 30 junior high students' language learning motivation through questionnaires. Most students said their motivation was passive and reluctant due to outside pressures rather than interest in English. While participation was high, motivation was mostly passive and reluctant rather than intrinsic. The findings support that intrinsic motivation leads to better second language acquisition.

Inspiring Prosocial Behaviour in the Classroom through Collaborative Learning...
The mission of this case study was to analyze whether the collaborative learning environment in the classroom inspires prosocial behavior in students. Prosocial behaviours are intended to help other people, characterized by a concern about the rights, feelings and welfare of others. Behaviours that can be described as prosocial include feeling empathy and concern for others and behaving in ways to help or benefit other people. The sample consisted of a single classroom with 35 students. The analysis was done using sociograms. The sociometric analysis has shown that the prosocial behavior of students has improved while participating in the collaborative learning activities. The findings of the study indicate that the collaborative learning inspires students’ prosocial behaviours. Deepthi Karunakaran | Dr. P. B.

This thesis examines how mothers can promote critical thinking in their 4-5 year old children through their interactions. The researcher developed assessments to identify features of critical thinking in young children and designed an intervention program to teach mothers strategies to support critical thinking. In a study with Indonesian mother-child pairs, the intervention group mothers learned to encourage children's questioning and reasoning. While the control group children's critical thinking also developed over time, the intervention group children showed greater improvements. The findings highlight how metacognitive programs for parents can promote critical thinking in young ages.

It is a three phase process where students first explore their prior knowledge on a topic, then investigate the topic further through questions and research, and finally present what they've learned. The approach aims to develop students' thinking, engagement, and creativity.

I am a PhD student in Social Science and Comparative Education at the University of California, Los Angeles. I came to know Yeojin when I was her Teaching Assistant for the Methodologies in Communication Research class during the 2016 Fall quarter. Yeojin distinguished herself by being an outstanding team leader in her research group as well as by designing an exceptional research study on “The Joint Effect of Mere Exposure and Peer Influences on Consumer Behavior.” It was an innovate project that adeptly handled the complexities of a Social Science experimental study. Overall, she is highly intelligent and has good analytical skills. Her research project demonstrated her ability to garner a deep understanding of various methodologies in communication research and to come up with innovative ways to develop them. Yeojin also demonstrated good teamwork skills as well as exceptional leadership skills. She effectively led and managed her research team with excellent communication skills. At a personal level, Yeojin is a well-disciplined and diligent individual with a pleasant disposition. Not only was she interested in and motivated to learn class material, she also put great effort toward developing her own original and creative ideas. Yeojin is unquestionably an exceptional addition to any team. She has proven herself to have the perseverance, initiative, and fervent intellectual curiosity that one needs to succeed in such an environment. I would therefore highly recommend Yeojin Lee.
