Rti for Diverse Learners

Autor Catherine C Collier
en Limba Engleză Paperback – 16 mar 2010

Ne-a atras atenția modul riguros în care Rti for Diverse Learners transformă cerințele legislative ale reautorizării IDEA din 2004 într-un instrument de lucru imediat aplicabil la catedră. Structura volumului urmărește fidel arhitectura piramidală a modelului Response to Intervention (RTI), fiind organizată pe capitole dedicate fiecărui nivel de intervenție (Tier 1, Tier 2 și Tier 3). Această progresie logică permite cadrelor didactice să identifice rapid pragul la care se află un elev și să aplice soluții calibrate pentru problemele de ordin cognitiv, comportamental, de alfabetizare sau de comunicare. Metodologia propusă de Catherine C Collier se fundamentează pe nevoia critică de a distinge între barierele lingvistice naturale ale unui elev care învață limba engleză și dizabilitățile reale de învățare. Suntem de părere că valoarea adăugată a acestei ediții rezidă în cele peste 200 de intervenții concrete, descrise prin instrucțiuni directe și exemplificate prin studii de caz din sălile de clasă. Spre deosebire de abordările pur teoretice, Catherine C Collier introduce instrumente vizuale precum modelele de monitorizare continuă a problemelor și „Piramida Rezilienței”, oferind o hartă clară pentru monitorizarea progresului. Comparabil cu Response to Intervention (Rti) and English Learners de Jana Echevarria în ceea ce privește rigurozitatea științifică, acest volum se diferențiază printr-o focalizare mai extinsă pe diversitatea culturală și prin volumul mare de resurse gata de utilizat. În timp ce alte titluri similare se concentrează pe cadrul general, lucrarea de față este un ghid de implementare care prioritizează intervenția rapidă pentru a preveni eșecul școlar, oferind un glosar esențial pentru navigarea terminologiei complexe din educația specială.

De ce să citești această carte

Recomandăm această carte educatorilor și psihologilor școlari care lucrează în medii multiculturale. Cititorul câștigă o strategie clară de triaj pedagogic prin cele 200 de intervenții practice, reușind să facă distincția corectă între dificultățile de învățare a unei limbi străine și necesitățile de educație specială. Este un instrument esențial pentru a asigura echitatea în evaluare și instruire conform standardelor RTI.

Descriere scurtă

The 2004 reauthorization of IDEA spells out schools' responsibility to provide instructional intervention and Response to Intervention (RTI) as the first line of problem solving when addressing students' learning and behaviour differences. This research-based resource provides more than 200 instructional interventions for teaching the growing population of students from culturally and linguistically diverse backgrounds within an RTI framework. Organized by the tiers of RTI, these specific interventions help classroom teachers address students' cognitive, behaviour, literacy, and communication issues at each level. This book features:
- A reader-friendly format that allows busy teachers to easily find the interventions they need
- Straightforward, concrete directions for using each intervention
- Examples from practice and a glossary to aid implementation
RTI for Diverse Learners offers step-by-step guidance for distinguishing between language development and special education needs in diverse students and providing appropriate instruction.

Recenzii

"A user-friendly and highly practical book full of research-based intervention strategies for teachers who are implementing RTI programs for second-language learners and other culturally diverse students."
"This highly readable book is appropriate for teachers, administrators, researchers, and other leaders in the field who seek to know more about the increasingly common practice of using RTI as an intervention, support, and eligibility determination system for diverse learners. Collier provides a thorough, research-based overview of what RTI is and why it is important, followed by a clear, practical overview of each tier of intervention. This book is filled with practical advice that guides educators through each stage of the intervention process, explains some of the most relevant issues in the educational system and their relationship to RTI, and provides a manual for applying RTI-based principles and approaches to the particular needs of culturally and linguistically diverse students."
"Like Collier's other books, this one provides an essential resource for teachers, particularly those who work with culturally and linguistically diverse (CLD) students along the continuum fo needs. Collier not only explains some of the current pitfalls and challenges related to the traditional assessment and intervention process, but also expounds on the reasons tiered interventions are rapidly becoming a highly regarded practice in the educational community. This easy-to-understand, practical book helps teachers put clear guidelines, effective collaboration, and appropriate decision-making processes in place to distinguish between students who are merely in the process of second-language acquisition and those who have genuine special education needs."
"Collier has crafted an indispensible resource for school districts faced with increasing numbers of culturally and linguistically diverse students. Many of these students arrive with issues that seem to indicate disability. In this book, Collier provides research-based and classroom-proven intervention strategies that allow schools to effectively address learning and adaptation issues of diverse students. By using these strategies within an RTI model, school teams can ensure that the needs of culturally and linguistically diverse students are appropriately identified and addressed."
"No one is left out! This all-inclusive volume builds on Catherine Collier's extensive work over many years and provides the one handbook teachers in the field have for years been wishing someone would write. Teachers can follow the carefully structured diagnosis and intervention plan with confidence and know their learners will be set on a learning path that will provide them with optimal support."
