Academic pursuit is a long-term commitment, which can lead to negative consequences, such as lack of motivation, dissatisfaction, and disappointment if performance in an examination is low. Enjoyment in academic pursuits can sustain the interest and focus necessary to learn and perform. The flow theory, optimal level of arousal, positive academic self-perception, and positive emotional environment provide the necessary intrinsic motivation and important directions to develop strategies to enjoy academic pursuit. A framework has been developed to indicate that simultaneous activation of positive academic self-perception and positive emotional environment routes leads to effective learning with consequent improvement in performance. Students can use these devices through continuous academic self-assessment. Research directions and applications are indicated.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
