This artifact is a brief executive summary of YDEKC’s series on student motivation, engagement, and 21st-century skills. The first part of the series, published in 2012 (revised in 2014) proposed a working definition of motivation and engagement, and suggested possible approaches to measurement. The second part, released in 2014, describes a number of strategies for building motivation and engagement in schools and in out-of-school-time settings. YDEKC (Youth Development Executives of King County) served the King County region of Washington State from 2010 to 2023.
