Changing Teachers' Negative Expectations
Abstract
The purpose of my study was to examine the effects of a shortrange interactive process, involving teacher and child, on changing the teacher's negative expectations of a child to positive ones. This interactive process involved a demonstration of teaching strategies, the selection of curricular priorities, and a planning session with teachers, which all related to the performance of children experiencing difficulties in the classroom. The motivating factors for the process (hereafter referred to as the demonstration planning system*) were the growing failure rates in our public school system (Schain 1972), and the increasing number of children identified as learning disabled or educationally vulnerable.

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
