Book excerpt: "The research question addressed in this project was: How can special education paraprofessionals be more effectively supported to increase the independence for career and college readiness and success of students in special education services? (2014). This capstone encompasses effective paraprofessional utilization in student learning and acclimation to district culture and expectations, a manual for the paraprofessionals and evaluation, and appraisal tools for the development of a strong working team. The capstone outlines current literature, a systematic research plan, results presented in an analytic manner, which encompass the methods for research and the development of a systematic and ongoing training schedule for all paraprofessionals. The motivation for this capstone comes from one teacher's experiences and frustrations with underutilized paraprofessionals and a passion to improve the entire team for greater student success" --
