STEP (Student/Teacher Emergenetics Profile) is an exciting new way to understand how kids learns and how teachers can facilitate an environment of progress and success. Based on the acclaimed Emergenetics programme, STEP recognises that the way children think, behave and learn is born of two distinct factors: nature (genetic tendencies to think and act in certain ways) and nurture (surroundings, upbringing, socialisation).
Every individual is unique. From the way we look to how we behave, speak and act, we all do it differently. We also have our own unique methods of learning. Once those methods are identified, it can make all the difference. Students can learn in a way that suits them best, parents can better understand their children, and teachers are better equipped to communicate, solve problems, and help students reach their goals.
Based on a broad body of current brain and behavioural research, the STEP profile is geared specifically for students ages 9-18. It provides an insightful tool for parents and educators with the power to transform a child’s educational experience.
The STEP profile comprises 108 questions that assess the thinking and behavioural attributes of children. Additionally, it offers practical teaching suggestions for individualising each student’s learning.
The profile gauges children’s responses to specific learning environments and teaching techniques. Some children learn best when teachers use humour, while others prefer a serious environment. Some children learn best when the teacher integrates music into the lesson. Still others are at their best hearing a lecture. By covering a wide range of situations and teaching techniques, we help uncover learning preferences and enhance the school environment.
