dc.description.abstract | Pathways to Resilience Trust contracted Dr Jennifer Cartmel, School of Human Services and Social Work, Griffith University to undertake an evaluation of the Journey to the Island of Calm program. A pilot evaluation was conducted in Term 4, 2016. The information gathered during this pilot was used to revise the program and develop additional resources to support teachers. The evaluation reported in this paper was conducted between 2016 and 2017.
The program has accrued positive gains for children in their self-regulation and self-understanding. The significant increase in their positive motivational state to engage in schooling has benefits, as higher hope has been found to correlate with academic achievements (Synder et al, 2003) and a greater sense of wellbeing. The children who participated in the program showed more focused behaviours to engage in classroom learning. | |
