  • Description: This Canadian study investigated the various conditions of engagement for adult high school learners guided by Wlodkowski's motivational framework for culturally responsive teaching. Using a qualitative case study design, adult learners and instructors from two different academic upgrading programs participated in the study. Results indicate the framework is a useful tool for understanding intrinsic motivating conditions for basic education learners. The findings also shed some light on how extrinsic motivators play a role in engaging students in the teaching and learning process.
