Description

Research on strategic help seeking has matured significantly in recent years. This volume captures the current state of knowledge, research, and theory on help seeking as a strategic learning resource. It is international in scope, with contributors from the United States, the Netherlands, Japan, and Israel. As a whole, the book suggests that strategic (adaptive) help seeking is a critical school-readiness skill that is facilitated by mastery-oriented classroom achievement and social goals, by teachers who invite rather than ask questions, and by cultural characteristics that support student inquiry. Strategic Help Seeking is an excellent resource for educational researchers and practitioners including teachers, school administrators, instructional designers, and reference librarians.
