The Teaching-Learning Process in Clearview
Clearview Regional is committed to delivering instruction that increases student academic
achievement. To that end, they have researched both how students learn and how to deliver
an instructional program that supports that learning. Using the latest research on the
essential elements of instruction and brain-based learning, our programs offer students an
opportunity to grow and achieve at high levels. The district, likewise, has a strong
commitment to the preparation and support of their staff in the acquisition of teaching
strategies that promote the achievement of all students.
Learning Styles and Student Achievement
The Clearview Regional High School District has entered into a partnership with
Performance Learning Systems to provide online staff development training for teachers in
the district. Designed for students, teachers, and parents, the Learning Styles staff
development program addresses specific learning or work styles by utilizing the latest
findings in brain research. Included in these modules is a system developed by Performance
Learning Systems called The Kaleidoscope Profile®, a learning style inventory that
combines three research-backed surveys into one profile. Parents, students, and teachers
are invited to take the survey to learn their own natural approach to learning.
