"Human accomplishments result from the reciprocal influences of external circumstances, a host of personal determinants, including endowed potentialities, acquired competencies, reflective thought, and a high level of self initiative" — noted social psychologist Albert Bandura
The Learning Center is directed by Dr. Bruce W. Tuckman, Professor of
Educational Psychology in the School of Educational Policy and Leadership of the
College of Education, and a Fellow of the American Psychological Association.
Dr. Tuckman, the developer of the Strategies of School Success course at
The Ohio State University, has scholarly interests that focus on motivation and
cognitive processes and their application in the form of learning and motivation
strategies for achievement. He is well known for his work on procrastination and
methods to overcome it, and for his theory of group development stages:
“forming, storming, norming, and performing.” He has also authored a number
of textbooks, including Conducting Educational Research, Theories and
Applications of Educational Psychology, and, most recently, Learning and
Motivation Strategies: Your Guide to Success.
Dr. Tuckman’s most recent published articles and conference papers can be
found under References.
