The focus of the current study is to examine the nature of the relationship of goal orientation with psychological birth order. Likewise, it also looked into the ability of psychological birth order to influence the endorsement of achievement goals (mastery-approach and avoidance; performance- approach and avoidance). A total of 220 high school students engaged in shadow education answered the White-Campbell Psychological Birth Order Inventory (PBOI) and the Achievement Goal Questionnaire (AGQ). Based on the regression analysis performed, only the pairing of psychological birth order and performance-approach is significant while those of psychological birth order, mastery-approach, mastery-avoidance, and performance-avoidance are not significant. Further analysis revealed that those who are psychologically firstborns tend to endorse the mastery-approach goal orientation while those who are psychologically youngest or lastborn endorses mastery-avoidance.

 This paper reflects upon taking up stories with high school students that are full of graphic images of war, genocide and ethnic cleansing. Young people today are bombarded with images of human suffering via the media; when teachers take up traumatic stories, they add to an already overwhelming tide. Narrative and critical analysis are woven together to explore students’ responses to such stories in Canadian schools in which productivity and performance are often used as indicators of student success. Instead, opportunities and possibilities to teach pedagogies of peace and possibility are imagined.
