Item The Impact of Portfolios on Mastery Experiences of Middle School Band Students(ProQuest, 2023-05-11) Hopper, JoshuaRyan & Deci (2000) state: “Motivation produces. It is therefore of preeminent concern to those in roles such as manager, teacher, religious leader, coach, health care provider, and parent that involve mobilizing others to act” (p. 69). Albert Bandura’s Social Cognitive Theory (SCT), which was added to his Self-Efficacy Theory (SET) in 1977, explores motivation through the lens of four unique sources, including mastery experiences. This study looked at whether or not portfolios could impact mastery experiences. Though the quantitative impact was not significant, qualitative data revealed some promising findings that may lead to an improved effectiveness of portfolios on mastery experiences.
