Student engagement and achievement in American secondary schools
Open accessAbstract
Findings from five main projects in the National Center on Effective Secondary Schools, which operated from December 1, 1985 to February 28, 1991, are presented. Projects investigated different aspects of engagement and achievement problems through literature reviews, analyses of existing data sets, and new studies of students and staff in 32 middle and 62 high schools throughout the United States. Material from the projects is integrated into the following chapters: (1) "The Significance and Sources of Student Engagement" (F. M. Newmann, G. G. Wehlage, and S. D. Lamborn); (2) "Taking Students Seriously" (A. Gamoran and M. Nystrand); (3) "Higher-Order Thinking and Prospects for Classroom Thoughtfulness" (F. M. Newmann); (4) "Building New Programs for Students at Risk" (G. G. Wehlage and G. A. Smith); (5) "Cultivating Teacher Engagement: Breaking the Iron Law of Social Class" (K. S. Louis and B.

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.
