Motivation and Achievement During and After the Covid-19 Pandemic

The COVID-19 pandemic upended education systems across the globe, forcing an unprecedented shift from traditional classrooms to emergency remote learning. As students and educators navigated this new terrain, their motivation was tested like never before.

This volume explores how motivation and achievement were shaped by the pandemic's disruptions. Drawing on research from nine countries, it presents a rich tapestry of theoretical and empirical insights into how learners and teachers adapted, coped, and sometimes thrived under extraordinary circumstances. With 12 chapters spanning diverse educational systems and perspectives, the book offers perspectives about a rare "natural experiment" in understanding motivation during uncertainty, stress, and change.

Essential reading for researchers, educators, and policymakers, Motivation and Achievement During and After the COVID-19 Pandemic not only documents a pivotal moment in educational history but also offers guidance for building more resilient, equitable, and motivating learning environments in the post-pandemic world.
