About this title

Synopsis

A fresh perspective that provides literacy educators with the theory and practice to develop effective RTI programs in literacy.

Until recently, most books on Response to Intervention have taken the perspective of special educators or educational psychologists, emphasizing the identification of learning disability rather than prevention. This book adopts a preventive stance, offering a critical analysis of problematic current practices, along with clear examples and logic for more appropriate practices.

Edited by noted expert Peter Johnston, this resource:

Offers research-based intervention and assessment strategies
Demonstrates the importance o professional development and teacher expertise
Takes a look at incorporating RTI in the classroom and school
Shows how existing practice can fit into an RTI approach

New and classic articles by literacy experts including Richard Allington, Scott Paris, Linda Dorn, and P. David Pearson address a broad range of RTI issues in-depth covering theory, research, and practice in one comprehensive volume. Reflection questions and action ideas will extend learning in professional development groups and teacher education classes.
