Children's Approaches to Learning Teachers provided information on how the children approach learning. Teachers were asked to respond to a series of questions, asking about the frequency with which the specific sampled children in their classrooms demonstrated certain behaviors. The approaches to learning scale measures behaviors that affect the ease with which children can benefit from the learning environment. It includes six items that rate the child's attentiveness, task persistence, eagerness to learn, learning independence, flexibility, and organization. In this report, information about the frequency of such behaviors is presented in terms of often/very often versus sometimes/never. |
