If you were Corey's math teacher the following year (i.e., in seventh grade), what strategies might you use to improve Corey's self-efficacy and math performance?
What will be an ideal response?

• Identify specific concepts and skills that Corey has not yet mastered, and provide instruction (perhaps in the form of computer software that he can use independently) to help him make up his deficiencies.
• Define success in terms of improvement or task accomplishment, rather than in terms of performance relative to others.
• Provide competence-promoting feedback
