Abstract

This study focused on the impact of an eight-week workshop series focusing on developing and improving students' self-esteem and self-efficacy. Research has shown a connection between self-esteem self-efficacy, and academic achievement. Nine students from a suburban elementary school who were recommended by their teacher and counselor participated in the study. A pre/post-test was used to determine their sense of self-efficacy and self-esteem. The results present both the responses to the survey as well as an in-depth examination of how the specific characteristics of the students could impact the outcomes.
