3 needs essential for health and well-being

 

In 1985, psychologists Deci and Ryan identified three psychological needs essential for psychological health and well-being: competence, relatedness, and autonomy.

When these needs are met, our learners are motivated to initiate behavior. This video sums it up nicely.

I've created a job aid to keep in your hip pocket, which ties together with value and intrinsic motivation.

What are some ways you've incorporated competence, relatedness, and autonomy into your learning content? I'd love to hear from you: sarah-ryan@email.com .
