Watering Up the Curriculum for Adolescents with Learning Disabilities-Part 2

Goals of the Affective Dimension

Edwin S. Ellis

Edwin S. Ellis professor of teacher education at the University of Alabama.

This article addresses issues associated with common pedagogical practices that impede affective development of adolescents with learning disabilities. It also outlines goals, principles, and techniques for "watering up" curriculum and instruction so that intrinsic motivation, internal locus of control, academic and social self-concept, self-esteem, a sense of competence and confidence, an "attack" attitude about challenging tasks, willingness to take risks, and sense of personal potency are fostered.
