Researchers acknowledge that students’ learning and achievement requires both effective cognition and the motivation to apply it. In addition, both cognition and motivation are multidimensional, each involving different processes that may be less or more salient in different contexts. However, most basic research and intervention studies focus on either cognition OR motivation, and commonly only target a single process.

A second area of investigation was to test the theory that teachers value papers written by students who share their hemispheric dominance.
The subjects, eight twelfth graders and four (English) teacher evaluators, …
