I wonder how many accidental “reply all” emails @aeraedresearch.bsky.social gets that are either “yay!” or “boo” 🤣
Happy #AERA2026 decision day to all who celebrate! May your day be a happy one, either because of or despite your results!
On a separate note, thanks again to all who submitted such excellent work and who worked hard to review for @aera-motsig.bsky.social —I see you and I GREATLY appreciate you! ❤️

Motivation matters! “By understanding student motivation, these teaching strategies and approaches can be fine-tuned and adapted to differently motivated students to maximize student learning. That is exactly what motivation scientists in education have been investigating for decades.”
