Competent Learner Model (CLM) Questionaire


 
  The focus of the Competent Learner Model (CLM) is on developing the seven repertoires that all learners need in order to perform well in learning environments and to perform daily functional actions. These repertoires are based on B.F. Skinner’s (1957) analysis of functional language. His behavioral analysis of language provides a framework for developing communication, observing and listening skills, and the preacademic skills of reading and writing. This is achieved by providing instructors (i.e., educators and parents) with a Course of Study, Performance Assessments, Coaching, Curriculum, and Collaborative Consultations.

In an attempt to improve the quality and focus of our services to your learner(s), learning environment, program, district, or agency, we are providing you with this questionnaire to complete. Please take the time to answer these questions and write any comments or concerns that you may have. Tucci Learning Solutions, Inc. would like you to provide this information at least before and after your complete the CLM Course of Study.
