The presence of School-Wide Positive Behavior Interventions and Supports (SWPBIS) in the classroom is highly dependent on teacher implementation. However, relatively little research has focused solely on the implementation of SWPBIS components in the classroom environment. This exploratory study utilized an online survey, titled the "SWPBIS…

School district takeovers--when a state education agency (SEA) assumes control of a low-performing district--are the most aggressive accountability intervention available to SEAs. Much of the scholarship on takeovers has been skeptical on both normative and pragmatic grounds, but these analyses don't wrestle with what else to do when students'…

While the measurement of treatment integrity is important to determine how much, and how well, interventions are delivered in schools, the science of treatment integrity is not well developed in education research. The purpose of this paper is to describe a program of research that has developed treatment integrity measures over the past 10 years…

This study examined how background knowledge activation impacted reading comprehension. Comparisons were made between discussion-based background knowledge activation, paired informational text background knowledge activation, and a control group. One-way ANOVAs discovered significant differences between the discussion group and the control group…

The research synthesis presented here reviewed the currently available evidence on the effectiveness of parent-implemented interventions and family-centered service delivery approaches in early intervention, early childhood special education, and kindergarten through grade three (EI/ECSE [early childhood special education]/K-3). The search for…

(1) Background: The response to intervention (RtI) model makes possible the early detection of reading problems and early intervention for students at risk. The purpose of this study is to analyze the effective measures that identify struggling readers and the most effective practices of the RtI model in reading in Primary Education. (2) Method: A…

The purpose of this study was to examine how an early literacy intervention, Kindergarten Peer-Assisted Learning Strategies (K-PALS; Mathes et al. Kindergarten peer-assisted literacy strategies (K-PALS): Sopris West, 2001), can be intensified to extend the positive outcomes to students who do not initially demonstrate an adequate response to…

Teacher consultation is commonly used to ensure that classroom-based interventions are implemented with fidelity to achieve targeted outcomes, yet the consultation process is not well-understood. Consultant-teacher relationship quality is one feature of consultation that may promote intervention outcomes--both directly and indirectly via teachers'…

The shift to online platforms has heightened concerns about academic misconduct, particularly contract cheating, where students outsource work to third parties. While research has examined perceptions of this issue, less attention has been given to concrete teacher-led strategies, especially within English as a Foreign Language (EFL) contexts.…

The current climate in schools is increasingly polarized, mirroring the social and political tensions at the meso- and macro-levels of society. This relatively recent phenomenon calls for school-based interventions, yet the existing empirical evidence is still scant. This scoping literature review aimed to provide an overview of existing studies…

Anxiety is a prevalent and disruptive condition among autistic school-aged students, often worsening difficulties in communication, learning, and peer interactions. This systematic review evaluates the effectiveness of culturally sustaining cognitive and behavioral interventions (CBIs) in reducing anxiety within this population. A structured…

Purpose: Applying evidence-based grammar intervention can be challenging for speech and language therapists (SLTs). Language in Interaction Therapy (LIT) is a focused stimulation intervention for children with weak morphosyntactic skills, which was developed to support SLTs in incorporating results from effect studies in daily practice. The aims…

This American Indian and Alaska Native (AIAN) Services Snapshot summarizes key data on demographics and services for children from birth to age five and pregnant women served by all AIAN programs. The data in this Snapshot is a subset of the annual Program Information Report (PIR) submission to the Office of Head Start. Data categories include:…

Objective: The effectiveness of the Social Anxiety Program on Adolescent Twins investigated in this study. Method: The study is a mixed-method study using a one-group pretest-posttest design, together with the qualitative method. First, Intraclass Correlation Coefficient used to find out the concordance and differentiation level of the twins'…

The purpose of the study was to identify and synthesise the interventions used to build the strategies for organising and managing research at universities that can be feasible in Ukraine. To achieve this purpose we provided a descriptive profile of the interventions and strategies used at universities to organise and manage research, rather than…
