Abstract/Notes: THE TRUE STORY OF THE YOUNGEST PERSON TO CLIMB THE SEVEN SUMMITS by Jordan Romero with Linda LeBlanc 2015, Simon & Schuster Books for Young Readers Paperback, 368 pages No Summit Out of Sight is about Jordan Romero, a young man who set a goal to climb each continent's tallest mountain. At the age of 9, Jordan was inspired by a mural at his school, a simple depiction of nested summits showing the height of the seven continents' highest mountains. In the book, Jordan describes himself as a goal-oriented young person, and so, despite his inexperience with actual mountain climbing, he embarked on a mental and physical training regimen with the goal of climbing his first summit-Mt.

Abstract/Notes: Goal Orientation Theory focuses on the types of goals that individuals pursue, and analyzes the influence of school structures on student motivation and learning. This research used the explanatory sequential design of mixed methods to identify the elements and teaching strategies present in the Upper Elementary classrooms of the Puerto Rico Montessori Public Schools Project used by their teachers that explain the perception of their students as environments that promote mastery goal orientation. In the quantitative phase, a questionnaire was administered to students of nine classrooms to identify their personal goal orientation and their perception of the goal structure of their learning environments. In the second phase of the study, the analysis of the quantitative data collected in the first phase of the study was used to identify three classrooms with varying degrees of mastery goal orientation structure. Through a qualitative approach, the elements and teaching strategies that promote a structure related to the mastery goal, as perceived by their students, were identified through individual interviews with their teachers. The findings point to the Upper Elementary classrooms as environments oriented mainly to the mastery goal and identify and describe strategies and elements in them that promote and reinforce this orientation in their students. Alternate abstract: La Teoría de orientación a la meta se enfoca en los tipos de meta que los individuos persiguen, y analiza la influencia de las estructuras escolares en la motivación y aprendizaje estudiantil. Esta investigación utilizó el diseño secuencial explicativo de métodos mixtos para identificar los elementos y las estrategias de enseñanza presentes en los ambientes de Taller II (9–12 años) del Proyecto de Escuelas Públicas Montessori de Puerto Rico utilizadas por sus guías que explican la percepción de sus estudiantes como ambientes que promueven la orientación a la meta de aprendizaje (mastery goal orientation). En la fase cuantitativa se administró un cuestionario a estudiantes de Taller II para identificar su orientación de meta personal y su percepción sobre la estructura de metas de sus ambientes. En la segunda fase del estudio se utilizó el análisis de los datos recopilados en la primera fase del estudio para identificar tres ambientes con distintos grados de orientación a la meta de aprendizaje. A través de un acercamiento cualitativo se identificó, mediante entrevistas individuales a sus guías o maestras, los elementos y las estrategias de enseñanza que promueven una estructura relacionada a la meta de aprendizaje. Los hallazgos señalan a los Talleres II como ambientes de aprendizaje orientados mayormente a la meta de dominio, e identifica y describe estrategias y elementos en ellos que promueven y refuerzan esta orientación en sus estudiantes.
