Students Who Feel They Belong Are Less Likely to Bully, Study Find

While some may argue in favor of punitive measures for students who bully and others side with improving school climate, a recent survey singles out another factor that may help curb bullying: a sense of belonging. 

"The more a child feels like they can connect with their family, their peers, and their school, the less likely they are to engage in bullying behavior," said Christopher Slaten, a co-investigator for the survey and an associate professor for the University of Missouri's College of Education.

Transitions are, by their nature, challenging for young kids. Whether it’s a big change—making a new friend or changing grades—or something much smaller, like lining up at the end of recess, a transitional time inherently creates weak points.

 The end of third grade is a turning point for young readers; it’s where skilled readers take off, finally able to competently read a variety of texts, and struggling readers teeter off track, often unable to ever catch up. This crucial juncture and its far-reaching implications for those who don’t meet the mark is why some educators are focusing their literacy efforts on the school years that come before third grade — hoping through innovation to offset what could be a terrible and lasting deficit in children’s reading skills.

NEW STUDY SUGGESTS THAT A TEACHER’S IMPACT ON STUDENT BEHAVIOR MORE IMPORTANT THAN TEST SCORES

You’ll want to read his entire article, if not the full study, but I think the sentence at the top of this blog post is the “money quote”: he finds that teachers’ impact on student behavior has a greater impact on “future success” than their impact on student test scores. Here’s how an article in Ed Week about the study defines what that means:

Future success includes graduating from high school on time, having a higher GPA at graduation, taking the SAT, and reporting intentions to enroll in a four-year college.

WHAT’S NEXT FOR AFFIRMATIVE ACTION?

https://www.theedadvocate.org/whats-next-affirmative-action/

Affirmative action has roots going back to 1957, with the Civil Right Movement. As part of the Civil Rights Act, college admissions officers were tasked with the responsibility of ensuring that higher education is equally available to all students regardless of race or ethnicity. Historically, most colleges and universities have taken this mandate even farther with policies that actively pursue racial and ethnic diversity on their campuses.

In the last few years, such policies have become increasingly controversial. Here is a look at some of the issues around affirmative action and where it may be headed in the future.

What alternatives to tracking pages or time offer more value and choice to readers?
