Book excerpt: "If you are a teacher looking for a proven way to help and inspire more students, a coach searching for more effective practices to support teachers, or a school leader working to create positive, systemwide change, then this book is for you. It is a book of wish craft—a way to craft, or to make real, our most important wishes for our students." —From the foreword by Harvey F. Silver How many times have you been stumped by a student's failure to learn? You tried everything in your tool kit, but nothing worked. Now what if there were a process that would help you pinpoint the student's specific need and design an action plan to swiftly remedy the problem? In Solving Academic and Behavior Problems, Margaret Searle and Marilyn Swartz offer just that. This process, based on the positive psychology of appreciative inquiry, builds on what is working with students to address what is not working. It's a system of support that helps general education teachers partner with specialists and parents to learn new ways to enrich academic, social-emotional, and behavioral growth through structured conversations and a series of productive meetings of 30 minutes or less. Using more than 25 video clips, Searle and Swartz walk you through the six basic steps of the appreciative inquiry problem-solving process: 1. Connect with team members and stakeholders. 2. Review the meeting focus/concern. 3. Share a story that details when you successfully addressed the concern. 4. Establish a goal using a concise "DATA" framework. 5. Design an action plan. 6. Commit to an action. The authors also outline how to use five whys to uncover hidden barriers to student achievement when learning isn't improving. Each chapter contains links to online video examples, activities, reflection questions, scenarios, handy tools, and tips from practitioners. A great resource to strengthen RTI and MTSS plans and invaluable to teachers, support staff, and administrators alike, Solving Academic and Behavior Problems provides the kind of insights and guidance that expand and sharpen educators' capacity to help all students learn.

Download or read book Uniting Academic and Behavior Interventions written by Austin G. Buffum and published by Solution Tree. This book was released on 2015 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The students most at risk of not acquiring the academic skills, dispositions, and knowledge necessary for long-term success are those who experience both academic struggles and behaviour problems. Whether behaviour influences academic performance or vice versa is an ongoing discussion that many experts have weighed in on with varying conclusions. The authors of this book delve into the fray. They highlight teachers' responsibility to educate all students and the need for united and simultaneous academic intervention and behaviour intervention for students at risk. They show how collaborative teams of teachers and school personnel can use a research-based framework -- RTI at Work -- to implement intervention that combines three proven complementary models: professional learning communities (PLCs), response to intervention (RTI), and schoolwide positive behavior supports (SWPBS). They offer K-12 administrators and teacher teams tools and processes to instruct and provide academic and behaviour intervention simultaneously within a three-tiered structure. They present a process they developed, the RTI at Work Pro-Solve Intervention Targeting Process, for determining, targeting, and observing academic and behaviour interventions.
