How do the Lions-Quest programs support the academic achievement of children?
The Lions-Quest Programme is designed for total flexibility. They can be incorporated into traditional subjects such as language, arts, social studies, moral science and music. They can also be taught as a separate course. Reading, writings, speaking and listening skills are the key elements and are reinforced in every lesson. The entire Lions-Quest programme promotes higher order thinking and analytical capabilities, discussion ability, co-operative group work, support and active learning. Children participating in these programs have shown better academic performances, less class truancy, and enhanced interest-span. In India too evaluations of controlled groups have shown similar results.
