Resiliency
   

My current research examines schools as Professional Learning Communities and correlates PLC operations to student achievement to determine if there is any relationship between these two variables. I am focusing on three aspects of student achievement as outlined by Linda Lambert : a) authentic academic assessments, b) positive involvement, and c) resiliency behaviours. This page captures some of the literature used to develop the resiliency framework for our study. To date we have adapted the Unger & Lienbenberg assessment instrument for resiliency and piloted our version in two sample schools.
