Three Intervention Strategies

y Lost Cost strategyo The low cost strategy that I believe would be the most effective would be to pay

early adopters five hundred dollars per department to train late adopters and lagers

in their department. With this design teachers who are motivated have theopportunity to train their peers. While ensuring that every teacher is properly

introduced and coached in the most effective method. Teachers are also coachedby their peers during their departmental meeting which is cost effective and

allows for teachers to work together during common planning periods. Theamount of money spent in this approach allows for the most conservative method.

y Medium Cost Strategyo The medium cost strategy would involve training the whole school the week

before school starts. Teachers will be broken up into departments and are trainedon the effective methodsof howto engage students. Teachers will be broken upinto peer groups that meet once a month. These group meetings will allow for

teachers to meeting during school hours, with a paid sub to watch their class.Each department will meeting on different weeks during the month to ensure that

every teacher has the proper training and support. An example of this methodwould be during week one the math department have subs while they participate

in peer groups on effective strategies to promote student engagement. Teacherscan also share effective methods with other teachers during this time. Week two

the science department meets and has the same interaction. This method allowsfor the revolving training and support teachers need to change the pedagogy of

teaching and engaging learners. The paid sub and peer tutor is a more involvedmethod that absorbs the twenty five thousand dollars quickly but it also allow forresidual growth well after this method has been used.

y High Cost Strategyo I believe that the most effective method of closing the performance gap in schools

today is to involve the whole family in the proper training of students. This

method brings in parents so that they can undergo a training session. After theirtraining session, teachers undergo similar training as mention in previous strategy.

The next step is that every report card period parents are brought in to discussstrategies with teachers to be more effective in reaching their child. They also

discuss intervention strategies that allow students to become more effective inacademic settings. Teachers invite parents to join their peer meetings to discuss

effective strategies that would allow for the success of students. A group ofteachers are also trained in the proper recording of data that allows for the

effective monitoring of these methods to ensure that they are effective. During
