An Experimental Study of Slow Learners

Authors(1) :-Dr. Sangeeta Singh

Slow Learners are those children who are low achieving academic skills and often ignored by others as dull, Lazy or inept in the school setting. Slow learners log behind other students not only in academics but also in social, emotional that 5 to 15 percent of school going children, suffer from scholastic backwardness. The early identification of students who are at risk for educational failure is an important process that deserves much attention and research. Dr. S.Subramaniam says that although they have no intellectual disability, no identifiable neurological impairments and no learning disorders, slow learners perform poorly in school and exhibit discrepancy between expected achievement based on their intellectual ability assessment and actual achievement as children advance in school, There is a corresponding increase in difficult as school subject and assignments. Thus, children’s performance depends progressively more on their motivation to sustain and active commitment to and efforts towards self regulated learning.1 A pretest posttest random control group experimental group research design was followed to assess the effects of the integrated instruction on the academic performance and psychological indices of slow learners.
