Resource Reappropriation Approach

Abstract

The resource reappropriation approach, as examined in this study, has shown positive effects on student engagement and learning outcomes. By reusing existing resources and tailoring them to meet individual student preferences and interests, educators can create more engaging and relevant learning experiences. The traditional "one size fits all" approach often struggles to adapt to the diverse needs and interests of students, resulting in limited achievement and a lack of engagement. The resource reappropriation approach addresses this issue by providing a personalized learning experience for each student. The study employed a mixed-methods research design, combining a literature review with surveys and questionnaires administered to both educators and students. The literature review helped gather existing knowledge and theoretical frameworks related to personalized learning and content reappropriation, providing a foundation for the study. Surveys and questionnaires were then used to collect educators and students’ perspectives and experiences with the resource reappropriation approach. The findings of the study indicated that the resource reappropriation approach had a positive impact on student engagement and learning outcomes. By tailoring learning materials to students’ preferences and interests, educators were able to create more meaningful and relevant content, resulting in increased student engagement. Additionally, the personalized nature of the approach contributed to improved learning outcomes, as students were more motivated to actively participate in their education. The resource reappropriation approach offers a promising method for improving student engagement and learning outcomes. By acknowledging and catering to students' individual needs and interests, educators can create a more personalized and effective learning environment.
