Instrument Overview

Formerly called Pupil Attitudes to Self and School® (PASS), the Renaissance Fundamentals survey assesses how students feel about school and themselves as a learner, including connectedness, self-efficacy, and motivation. The Renaissance Fundamentals survey can be used as a universal screener to help teachers identify at-risk students and to develop or deploy suitable interventions. Dynamic, interactive, and immediately available reports provide insights into the whole district or school, from the demographic level down to the individual student level. These actionable reports provide standardized measures based on nine factors that focus on how a student feels about their school and themselves as learners. Renaissance Fundamentals can be used as a critical component to your MTSS process or other whole child initiatives, allowing educators to identify at-risk students and areas of concern before they manifest as chronic issues. Subscore(s): (1) Connectedness (2) Feelings about school (3) Perceived learning capability (4) Self-regard as a learner (5) Self-efficacy (6) Preparedness for learning (7) Attitudes to teachers (8) General work ethic (9) Confidence in learning (10) Motivation (11) Attitudes to attendance (12) Response to curriculum needs.
