Why do some students under-perform while others succeed?
There are many factors that impact learning. Ensuring that every teacher is equipped with the training and support to provide great instruction is key. However, despite great teaching, some students still under-perform. Is this solely the fault of inadequate teaching, or perhaps is there a missing ingredient? We believe that Student Learning Ability is also a major factor.
Education = Teaching x Learning Ability
If a student is only 50% effective at learning and teaching is 100% effective, education will only be 50% effective. Yes, differentiated instruction may compensate in some cases. However, it seems that improving student learning skills may also be key to improvement. Knowing a student’s Learning Ability Profile can be an effective tool to improving education success.
RTI Tool
Schools know from testing which students are not succeeding academically. However, academic test results generally do not explain why a student struggles with learning.
The Gibson Test complements tier 1 and tier 2 RTI processes. Now schools can have a better guide for interventions.
Testing is affordable, fast and easy
Cognitive skill testing historically has been resource intensive and expensive. Only a small percentage of students could be tested for IEPs. Now every student can be tested.
