Here the word “context" is used to describe a narrative or a scenario that helps studentsunderstand or apply content. Students are motivated when they understand the utility of thecontent being learned and can apply the learning to be of use to others [5]. Additionally, whenpersonal connections to content are clear, students are more inclined to persevere throughchallenges and demonstrate an increased desire
