To better understand the views of teachers and school-based administrators on student engagement and motivation, the Education Week Research Center invited users of edweek.org--"Education Week"'s flagship website--to participate in an online survey in April 2014. Surveys were received from 606 respondents, with 504 being deemed qualified based on self-identification as a K-12 teacher or schoolbased administrator. The survey examines a range of key issues related to student engagement and motivation, including: educators' perspectives on student engagement; the levels of engagement and motivation among students at respondents' schools; views of potential strategies and solutions; and a range of related topics. Highlights from the findings include: (1) Teachers and administrators deem student engagement and motivation to be the most important factor contributing to student achievement, among a range of possible influences on learning; (2) Most respondents believe that they are themselves good at motivating students, but they give more measured endorsements of their fellow teachers' and administrators' abilities; (3) Only four in ten respondents say the majority of students at their schools are highly engaged and motivated; (4) Less than half of respondents believe their pre-service training adequately prepared them to engage and motivate students. Views of inservice training are slightly more positive; (5) Almost all respondents report that a lack of student engagement and motivation is a concern at their schools. However, only a quarter believe it is a serious problem; and (6) The majority of teachers and administrators indicate that too little attention is given to promoting student engagement at their schools.
