Stability and change in adolescents task-specific achievement goals and implications for learning mathematics with intelligent tutors
We examine stability of achievement goals and effects of stability on learning. Students reported achievement goals for intelligent tutoring system math units. The majority of students achievement goals varied reliably from unit to unit. Students with stable mastery-approach achieved higher grades than peers with variable goals. Students with stable performance-approach goals used ITS help features less than those with variable goals.
