Le développement de l’intérêt pour un cours de physique chez les élèves en fonction de leur orientation vers les personnes

L’objectif de la présente étude est de vérifier si au secondaire IV les élèves plus fortement orientés vers les personnes développent moins d’intérêt pour leurs cours de physique que ceux qui sont moins fortement orientés vers les personnes. Les variables intérêt, au début et à la fin de l’année, et orientation vers les personnes furent mesurées à l’aide d’adaptations françaises des tests suivants : le Différentiateur sémantique de Geis, le Merritt College Motivation Inventory de Caughren. L’étude montre que seuls les élèves qui ne sont pas orientés vers les personnes conservent leur intérêt intact jusqu’à la fin de l’année scolaire et que l’intérêt des autres diminue.

Minorities in Engineering: Pre-College Motivation and Preparation

Because minorities hold a disproportionately low number of jobs in engineering and related professions, a program to attract and prepare more minority high school students for these fields has been developed and tested nationwide. New supplementary curriculum materials that apply practical life-experience situations of our technological society to basic mathematics, science, communications and guidance principles are provided. By using these materials, it is hoped that students will see the nature of modern technology and engineering and the strong interrelationship between technology and the quality of life for individuals. Since the positive attitude and influence of teachers, parents, and community members are necessary for the implementation of the minorities-in-engineering program, special activities, audio-visual aids, and workshops have been designed to interest and motivate teachers, administrators, parents, and community and industrial organizations for use on a regional basis.
