Freshman student tries out the "sticky note method" to speak up about WOWW

One student made a point of giving one of our WOWW coaches a note to express his appreciation for being noticed! The student wrote, "Thank you for complimenting our class on what we do well, by acknowledging what we do best we know what to continue doing. The class conversations also inform us on what we could improve on. The students in this class are now taking the information they have and are applying it to other classes. Thanks for doing what you do and I hope your experiment goes well." 

For this student, WOWW really made an impact and exemplified what the WOWW coach and teachers were using to highlight the positive - he modeled the same technique and tried out the sticky note method!

About This Project

The Working on What Works (WoWW) program uses classroom coaches to highlight what is going well, foster collaborative relationships between teachers and students, and help the class set goals towards a positive classroom environment. We plan to do the first quasi-experimental study evaluating the impact of WoWW on adolescent emotional and behavioral engagement, teacher efficacy, and the parent-teacher relationship in a Kansas high school serving a highly diverse and military connected community.
