2 What is a Conceptual Framework? A conceptual framework is a group of concepts that are broadly defined and systematically organized to provide a focus, a rationale, and a tool for integrating and interpreting information. A mind map, like below on chapter 9, Motivation & Emotion, is an example of a conceptual framework, pp. 222-. Motivation & Emotion 1.

3 Categorization: Bruner's theories emphasize the significance of categorization in learning. "To perceive is to categorize (perception is the organization and interpretation of sensory data in terms of past experience), to conceptualize is to categorize, to learn is to form categories, to make decisions is to categorize."Bruner maintains people interpret the world in terms of its similarities and differences. Understanding the fundamental structure of a subject (conceptual framework) makes it more comprehensible. Bruner viewed categorization as a fundamental process in the structuring of knowledge. Understanding: “Meaning is to be sought in the structure, the organization, the inner relationships of the subject itself.” (Brownell) Understanding: “To understand something means to assimilate it into an appropriate schema.” (schema: a conceptual structure) (Skemp) Understanding: “We understand something if we see how it is related or connected to other things we know.” (James and Thomas)

4 You will need your textbook, Chapter 9, Motivation and Emotion, P. 222— 239. We will focus on “Theories of Motivation”, p.223. The conceptual framework, in this instance, found by overviewing the title and headings is represented in the mind map below: Motivation & Emotion 1.

5 Conceptual Framework: Categorization, Analysis, and Deduction Motivation & Emotion 1. Theories of Motivation Evolutionary Approach Drive Reduction Theory Optimal Arousal Theory 2. Hunger and Sex 3. Approaches to Motivation Maslow’s Hierarchy of Human Needs Self-Determination Theory Intrinsic VS Extrinsic Motivation Self-Regulation: The Successful Pursuit of Goals “Categorizing happens when a learner already has a category name, such as a title (Ex. Theories of Motivation), or heading. The learner then finds information to fit under this category name. Finding information to fit under a category involves looking for facts, definitions, traits, and examples (analysis) that have the “commonality” described by the category title.”

6 Conceptual Framework: Categorization (Analysis, and Deduction) Motivation defined P. 223: Motivation is the force that moves people to behave, think, and feel the way they do. Motivated behavior is energized, directed, and sustained. Psychologists have proposed a variety of theories about why organisms are motivated to do what they do. In this section we explore some of the main theoretical approaches to motivation. behave think feel energized directed sustained

7 Conceptual Framework: Categorization (Analysis, and Deduction) Motivation defined Though analysis, we have discovered the component parts of the definition of motivation. However, the writer has not explained those parts yet. We have to keep a watch for those explanations. When we understand those explanations we move from categorization to classifying. We can then add it to our mind map or conceptual framework as in the next slide. Motivation is the force that moves people to behave, think, and feel the way they do. Motivated behavior is energized, directed, and sustained. Psychologists have proposed a variety of theories about why organisms are motivated to do what they do. In this section we explore some of the main theoretical approaches to motivation. behave think feel energized directed sustained

8 Conceptual Framework: Classification (Induction) Motivation defined Motivation is the force that moves people to behave, think, and feel the way they do. Motivated behavior is energized, directed, and sustained. Psychologists have proposed a variety of theories about why organisms are motivated to do what they do. In this section we explore some of the main theoretical approaches to motivation. behave think feel Classification: Once the details for the conceptual framework have been identified through analysis, the reader needs to continue reading to find facts and concepts and group those facts and concepts by their possible commonalities, according to the importance of their commonalities. In this instance, “What moves people to behave they way they do?” When we find an explanation, we add it to our mind map – (classification). Find what moves people to behave the way they do.

9 Conceptual Framework: Classifying Motivation & Emotion 1. Theories of Motivation Evolutionary Approach Drive Reduction Theory Optimal Arousal Theory 2. Hunger and Sex 3. Approaches to Motivation Maslow’s Hierarchy of Human Needs Self-Determination Theory Intrinsic VS Extrinsic Motivation Self-Regulation: The Successful Pursuit of Goals When we read under “Evolutionary Approach, p. 223)” that “an instinct is an innate (unlearned) biological behavior that is assumed to be universal throughout the species”, we recognize that this has a commonality with the definition of motivation, i.e. behavior. instinct Motivation is the force that moves people to behave, think, and feel the way they do.

10 differences similarities Analysis of Reading Passage about Norms (p. 255) folkway mores Folkways and Mores are Norms. Rules or guidelines about how to act. Rules not insisted upon. No punishment for not following rules. Rules insisted upon. Punishment if rules not followed. Read the passage under Norms and Types of Norms, p. 255
