LACs will have a positive impact on student achievement.
LACs will have a positive impact on student engagement.
LACs will have a positive impact on teacher satisfaction.
LACs will have a positive impact on school climate.
The impact of LACs on student achievement, student engagement, teacher satisfaction, and school climate will be moderated
by school type (public vs. private), socioeconomic status of students, and teacher experience.
The impact of ALACs on student achievement, student engagement, teacher satisfaction, and school climate will be mediated
by instructional practices, student-teacher relationships, and classroom environment.
Conclusion:
This conceptual framework provides a roadmap for conducting an impact assessment of LACs in public and private schools.
The assessment should include both quantitative and qualitative data to capture the full range of impacts. The findings of the
assessment can be used to inform the implementation of LACs and other educational interventions.
