measured in units of time:– Allocated Time– Engaged Time– Time-on-Task– Academic Learning Time (ALT)– Transition Time– Waiting Time– Aptitude – Perseverance*Aptitude and perseverance are described in “time

Time-Based Definitions of Student Characteristics
• Aptitude: The time a student needs to learn something under optimum conditions. This turns student in “slow” or “quick” students as opposed to “stupid” students.
• Perseverance: The time a student is willing to invest in the learning.
