Problems you prevent (or mitigate) when using Fundamental Skills 1

1.School failure: Early detection facilitates intervention to prevent learning difficulties from becoming chronic and ensures an appropriate educational response.


2.Difficulties in reading mastery and comprehension: Reading is the foundation of all learning; difficulties in this area can impact performance in any subject, including mathematics. This tool helps identify which skills are underdeveloped, allowing targeted stimulation to prevent negative effects on reading competence.


3.Difficulties in learning mathematics: Mathematics is often met with resistance because the root of the difficulty is not identified, leading to reinforcement without addressing the underlying issue. Identifying the source of the difficulty prevents it from becoming a long-term obstacle.


4.Lack of motivation and low academic self-concept: A false belief of low ability due to poor or insufficient school performance directly affects intellectual self-esteem and, consequently, motivation. Understanding their skills, how they influence performance, and how to develop them fosters students' sense of control over their learning and enhances their motivation for improvement.
