MDR Model: Contributions to the Motivation and Sociocultural Integration

摘要

The aim of this article is to present the results of improvement in the motivation and sociocultural integration of ethnic minority children at risk of social exclusion (Romani children) after the implementation of the MDR model in the classroom. This model is based on the creation of digital educational resources for mobile devices adapted to the special characteristics of the sample we have worked with. They are aimed at facilitating the teaching-learning process for the overall target population. After implementing the digital educational resources provided by the MDR model, a quantitative, quasi-experimental method was used to collect data related to motivation and sociocultural integration through two questionnaires: before the implementation phase (pre-phase), and after the use of these resources (post-phase). The results show that both the motivation and the sociocultural integration of these children have increased as a consequence of the use of the MDR model in mobile devices.
