Abstract Details

2008, Master of Arts in Education, Defiance College, Education.
The purpose of this project was to determine if the implementation of student choice in a secondary language arts classroom would change or improve students' attitudes toward their language arts course. There were a total of 43 participants from a rural Midwestern public school involved in the study. The data was collected using a daily journal and post assessment questionnaire. Analysis of the data indicated that a change in students' attitudes resulted from the implementation of student choice. The study included several recommendations for further study that included the use of a likert scale pre-assessment instrument.
