Background Influenceso
Prior Achievement* The effect size of prior achievement on student achievement is0.67, which is within the zone of desired effects.
* Prior achievement and prior school grades is the best individualpredictor for academic success for students.(Schuler, Funke, Baron-Boldt , 1990)
Self- Reported Grades
* The effect size of prior achievement on student achievement is1.44, which is very high and reaches out of the zone of desiredeffects.
*Self- reported grades for a student is how a student estimates ofhow they are performing and how they performed within thecontext of prior learning.

achievement is 1.28, which is high and reaches out of
the zone of desired effects.* This is an important influence because during thisstage, understanding how the children think and howthey are solving tasks affects what kind of materialswe choose and the curriculum we choose.

Attitudes and Dispositions Influences
o Reducing Anxiety* The effect size for reducing anxiety is 0.40, which is right at the
zone of desired effects.
* When we reduce anxiety for our students, then this can improve
other areas for them, such as taking classes that they wereavoiding and showing them that they can achieve in the subjectthat they are struggling in.
* If we use strategies to reduce anxiety, then it can tear down abarrier that could keep our students from achieving the goal that
is set before them.

than a student that is born at full term.

* When a student is struggling in certain areas, then providing
an early intervention, then the student has a chance ofsucceeding, but the intervention needs to be maintainedafter the early stages.
