Assessment focusing on reading,
writing and math, areas of concern, pen and any manipulatives needed to assess.
|
Analyze the findings to
evaluate what challenges are needed and how to use feedback effectively when
monitoring the student academic growth.

|
Monitor academic growth; focus
on students with learned helplessness. Create a chart for data; anecdotal notes,
pre and post assessment throughout the school year.

|
|
Collect and analyze data from
pre-assessments, post assessments and anecdotal notes taken; focusing on when
challenge and feedback were used.

This is an interesting study! I have never hear the term, "learned helplessness" before, but it is so true. By the time I have students in 4th grade, I feel like they just automatically give up when ANYTHING takes a little more effort than expected. In what ways are you planning to challenge these students? Also, how many students do you plan to monitor? Does it just depend on how many are in your class?
