Professor Colin Rogers

Professor

Associated research centres and groups: Centre for Social Justice and Wellbeing in Education, Centre for Technology Enhanced Learning

Current Teaching

Lecturer in Social Psychology of Education.

Research Interests

The motivational processes in educational contexts with a focus on the development of motivational style throughout the primary years of schooling. The motivational and self-esteem consequences of transfer between different educational stages (eg primary to secondary, secondary to tertiary). The relationship between motivational style and classroom behaviour and the consequential links between school ethos, motivation and the behaviour of children. This all ties in with the current concerns with school effectiveness and school improvment.
