Overview

Hope has been defined in different ways across various educational contexts; however, this first chapter explains “hope theory” as it is defined by positive psychology in order to ground the following chapters within a framework of “writing hope” that combines positive psychology with writing education theory and practice. Hope theory in positive psychology has been applied to some specific academic domains (e.g., math education); however, up until 2013 it had not been applied to the teaching of writing. This chapter provides the background of how hope theory research in positive psychology can apply to educational practices in the classroom and explains how it has been used successfully in other academic domains to enhance student learning and understanding.
