Study finds teaching that creates real-world value boosts student motivation‎

When university students get to create real value for others, their motivation, self-confidence, and academic performance increase. This is shown by a new study published in The International Journal of Management Education that examines how university teachers use value creation pedagogy. "Value creation pedagogy can make education more meaningful and relevant for society—but it takes courage, time, and support to succeed," says Martin Lackéus, researcher at Chalmers University of Technology.
