Brian Johnson; Amy L. Reschly; Roy P. Martin; Christopher Pinzone; James J. Appleton – Journal of Education for Students Placed at Risk, 2024

Wise, Steven L.; Kingsbury, G. Gage – Applied Measurement in Education, 2022
In achievement testing we assume that students will demonstrate their maximum performance as they encounter test items. Sometimes, however, student performance can decline during a test event, which implies that the test score does not represent maximum performance. This study describes a method for identifying significant performance decline and…

In a world where children are likely to experience early-life trauma, relationships matter, and trust is a key in forming healthy working relationships. Intentionally teaching adults and teachers how to evoke calmness in ourselves and breathe to handle negative situations, trusted educators can then teach children to do the same. It is important…
