This study was to examine whether the Do-Dream program would impact on the
achievements of elementary students with underachievements, and whether the program
would impact on satisfaction of the students attended in the program. For these purposes,
the school screened students with underachievements from the beginning of first semester,
2015, selected 16 students, and obtained permission from their parents to send their
children into the programs. The programs included two kinds such as programs for
foundational underachievements (FUA) and for underachievements in the selected
curriculum (SCU). The students with FUA took two hour sessions per day and eight hour
learning coaching program while students with SCU taking one hour session twice per
week and 17 hours learning motivation program. To examine the research questions, we
compared the mean differences between the first semester’s final achievements and the
second semester’s final exams, and survey results on the satisfaction questionnaire. As the
research results, first, the Do-Dream program impacted more positively on students with
SCU than did on students with FUA. In addition, the program did not impact much on
academic achievements for math, social studies, and English as foreign language. Second,
however, students attended in the programs showed some satisfactions on the programs.
We discussed a few issues related to the results and casted some suggestions for
improving the Do-Dream program.
