Abstract:
DESCRIPTION (provided by applicant): The purpose of this Phase I project is to
design and pilot test the feasibility of the first set of lessons in a
comprehensive program to enable staff and students in junior high schools to
create safe, supportive learning communities in the school and to enable
students to learn the necessary skills to maintain that environment. A
pretest/posttest experimental control group design will be used to determine
the effects of the instructional program on student knowledge of key concepts
(e.g., respect, tolerance) as well as student attitudes and beliefs related to
community, safety, and actions of others, and student use of skills. Measures
will also include teacher implementation of lessons, quality of the instruction
and classroom environment, and social validity of the program.
