This book was released on 2016 with total page pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Results indicate that within the intervention class, student academic achievement in remediated skills improved through teaching strategies aimed at increasing emotional well being and the use the individualized computer-based mathematics program. The increase was more substantial when students were given the freedom to control certain aspects of their learning experience. The happier they were in class and the more they believed success was possible, the better they performed. However, this mindset and performance did not carry over into their traditional 8th grade math classes. Students showed no improvement in grades from the start of the year through the end of the year in traditional classes.

This book was released on 2012 with total page 84 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The purpose of this project is to develop a mathematics program for use in an eighthgrade general math class which addresses student self-concept in mathematics focused on (a) a less intimidating, non-threatening classroom environment with a profusion of positive student reinforcement, (b) small cooperative student groups where students explore, problem-solve, reason, recognize thinking with logical justifications, (c) student perseverance, (d) effective classroom questioning to draw out student thinking, and (e) logical puzzles and critical thinking math problems. The objective of the project is to assist teachers and administrators in guaranteeing that all eighth-grade students have the opportunity to be successful in mathematics. Four lessons were designed around the California Mathematics and Common Core Standards. The lessons still need to be piloted and feedback from students and teachers would be beneficial to the effectiveness of each lessons implementation in a middle school mathematics classroom. Keywords: Academic achievement, non-threatening environment, self-concept, cognitive demand, classroom discourse, mathematical classroom discourse, math reasoning.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This study investigates the connection between the academic side of learning and the social emotional. More specifically, this study looks at one specific social emotional category, self-esteem, and examines the possibility of a correlation to academic success. Using a well-established quantifiable measure of self-esteem, The Coopersmith Self Esteem Inventory and each of its embedded self-esteem subscores (General Self, Social Self, Home/ Parent Self, School/ Academic Self), the self-esteem level of 51 volunteer participants were established. Each participant was middle school aged (Grades 6-8) and was a current student at a middle school in Middlesex County, New Jersey. Using a multiple regression, these Coopersmith scores were individually compared to grades in core academic subjects (Math, ELA, Science, and Social Studies) as well as NJSLA standardized assessment scores in Math and ELA. The results varied for the different conducted tests. Overall, a correlation was not found to exist between NJSLA scores and self-esteem as determined by the Coopersmith Self Esteem Inventory. However, there was a positive correlation found to exist between grades in core academic subjects and participant self-esteem. The correlation was not strong enough to be used as a predictor for individual student grades or self-esteem level; however, a P-value of greater than .95 for multiple Coopersmith subscores is indicative of a relationship between the two variables that is statistically significant. This is evidence to suggest that as a whole, middle school students with higher self-esteem are also more likely to see an increase in academic success as well. (ProQuest abstract).

This book was released on 2021 with total page 188 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: As school systems across North America struggle to redefine themselves, educators everywhere are seeking a balance between academic achievement and the human and social needs of their students. The purpose of this correlational study was to quantitatively assess the construct of the school experience, as determined by academic achievement, as measured by GPA, and the level of involvement in school activities, from the perspective of four measures of student self-esteem. Data were collected from 263 students in grades 6, 8, 10, and 12 in a small district in southwestern Canada. The first part of this study explored the relationship between student self-esteem and four independent variables: GPA, level of involvement, grade level, and gender. The Coopersmith Self-Esteem Inventory was used to measure self-esteem on four scales. As a result of multiple regression analysis it was found that the R2 values were very low in all cases (ranging from 0.20 to 0.36), which indicates that the factors studied were poor indicators of self-esteem and that there was a great deal unexplained variation associated with the data. GPA, level of involvement, grade and GPA: grade were significant at .05 level of significance. Gender was not a significant factor in this study. It appears that self-esteem is linearly related to GPA, with the intercept depending on the grade, level of involvement, and gender and the slope depending on the grade. The relationship between GPA and self-esteem was strongest at Grade 6. Self-esteem was found to be strongest for students who were heavily involved in school-related or extra-curricular activities. Eleven survey questions regarding the school experience were analyzed using logistical regression analysis, which showed that the importance of getting good grades and participating in school activities varied according to grade and gender. Academic achievement was most important to Grade 6 students, good grades were more important to girls, than boys, and the association between getting good grades and self-esteem was strongest at Grade 6. This study suggests the current focus on intellectual development in most schools may not have the desired effect on social and human development, more specifically, the development of healthy self-esteem.
