Academic Enablers and Student Achievement: Implications for Assessment and Intervention Services in the Schools
DiPerna, James Clyde
Psychology in the Schools, v43 n1 p7-17 Jan 2006
Academic enablers have been defined as attitudes and behaviors that facilitate students' participation in, and benefit from, academic instruction in the classroom (J.C. DiPerna & S.N. Elliott, 2000). The purpose of this article is to provide practitioners with an overview of specific academic enablers (motivation, study skills, engagement, and social skills) and their relationships with academic achievement. In addition, a practical framework is provided for considering academic enablers within assessment and intervention practices in the schools. (Contains 2 figures.)
