    Esky. Their past experiences have influenced their current behaviors as the parents have modeled behavior for what success looks like, and have verbally informed the students not to get their hopes up for any other kind of life. This is likely why these students are engaging in their current behavior, which includes not believing that they are capable of being intelligent, not being invested in the classroom, and not achieving consistently higher grades. The tasks that these students have set out to accomplish include getting their high school diploma so they can get a job that requires no skills, and this directly conflicts with the task that Mr. Esky has set forth.…

    I would like to extend my sincerest thanks for taking your time to consider my candidacy for the Educational Psychology/School Psychology program at the University of Wisconsin. I have always been drawn to behavioral psychology, the phenomenon of learning, and educational processes. After discovering that I had a special talent for working with children and at-risk youth, I eagerly began my academic pursuit in elementary education. With ever-increasing learning demands, and limited time and resources, I quickly learned that inevitably some children fail to perform adequately among their peers. This reality came quite clear to me through my experience working and substitute teaching in a public elementary school.…
