Item Improving Student Attitudes Towards School Via the Implementation of Leadership Binders(2019-07) Berlin, Samantha; Masters of EducationThe purpose of this study was to determine whether implementing leadership binders, would positively affect the attitudes of students towards school of selected 5th graders enrolled in the class. The measurement tool was a student attitude survey. This study involved the use of a pretest/post test design to compare data from April of 2019 (before the intervention was administered) to data from May of 2019 (after the intervention was nearly complete). Achievement gains were insignificant, though results could be attributable to many threats to internal validity. Research in the area of student attitudes towards school should continue given the high need of leadership opportunities within schools. Especially schools with high rates of truancy.
