Distal GoaL is a Long-term goal Attribution is a Causal interpretation of an event or outcome (e.g., that academic success is attributable to ability) Attribution Retraining is a Programs designed to change the attributional responses that individuals make in specific settings Attribution Theory is a Theory proposed by weiner to explain the attributional process Cognitive Feedback is a Specific information that links information about performance with the nature of the task Cognitive Modelling is a Procedure for developing students` performance that involves giving a rationale for the performance, demonstrating the performance, and providing opportunity for practice Controlability is a In attribution theory, causal dimension that defines the degree to which the cause of an outcome can be controlled Controlling Action is a Action that individuals engage in for extrinsic reasons, such as expectation, reward, or punishment Controlling Rewards is a Rewards used to control students` behavior or performance Criterion-Referenced Evaluation is a Evaluation in which an individual`s performance is evaluated with respect to preestablished criteria that are unaffected by other students` performance Enactive Learning is a Learning that occurs by performing a task Extrinsic Motivation is a Motivation in which behaviors are motivated by an external reward Functional Significance is a Subjective impression of why an action or event takes place Informational Rewards is a Rewards that provide useful feedback to students Information-Oriented Feedback is Specific information that emphasizes how one`s performance can be improved Mediated Response is a Subjective, internalized interpretation of an event prior to a response Modelling is a Demonstrating and describing the component parts of a skill to a novice Outcome Feedback is that which provides specific information about performance Performance-Oriented Feedback is a Specific information about the correctness of one`s performance Personal Teaching Efficacy is a Belief that a teacher can produce significant positive change in students Reciprocal Determinism is a Term used by Bandura to highlight the causal relationships among self-beliefs, experience, and external feedback Self-Determined Action is what individuals choose to engage in for intrinsic reasons Self-Efficacy is a Degree to which an individual feels confident that he or she can perform a task successfully Self-Regulated Learning is a Ability to control and explicitly understand all aspects of one`s learning Stability is a In attribution theory, causal dimension that defines whether the cause of an outcome is temporary or enduring Teaching Efficacy is a Belief that the process of education affects students in positive ways Vicarious Learning is a Learning that occurs through observation of a skilled model Proximal Goal is a Short-term goal Feedback is a See Cognitive Feedback and Performance Feedback Reciprocal Teaching is a Method of sequenced instruction, developed by Palincsar and Brown, in which teachers model comprehension strategies and guide students in their use; reciprocal teaching initially relies on scaffolding students` responses; responsibility then is shifted gradually to the students Norm-Referenced Evaluation is a Evaluation in which an individual`s performance is evaluated with respect to the group average
