The Academic Achievement Game: Experience with Entering Students
Wilson, J. D.
Scottish Educational Review, 10, 1, 7-18, May 78
The Academic Achievement Game (TAAG) summarizes the findings of two research studies in a kind of parlor "game" that incorporates predictable, chance and change elements in student performance. A brief description of TAAG is followed by evidence on validity. Its advantages and disadvantages are discussed in the context of transition to higher education, the main aims being to develop awareness among students, and to disseminate research knowledge.
