Taboada, A.; Kidd, J. K.; Tonks, S. M. – Research in the Schools, 2010
In this study, we explored 3 Grade 4 English Language Learners' (ELLs) perceptions of teacher autonomy-supporting practices in literacy instruction in science. The support of autonomy in literacy classes is central to students' internal motivation for reading. Given that many ELLs are at risk for reading failure, understanding autonomous learning…

The children in the lead author's third-grade class participated in a study of how the theory supported learning in…
