INTERVENTION PROGRESS CASE STUDY DISCUSSION QUESTIONS

1. How did research-based intervention target the student’s needs?

In what areas does the student have gaps in learning?

How is the intervention instruction designed to target these needs?

Is the intervention instruction explicit and systematic, with modeling and ample opportunities to practice and receive immediate corrective feedback? Describe.

Describe the practice opportunities provided during a typical intervention lesson.

How many opportunities for corrective feedback were provided during a typical lesson?

Did it take more intervention instruction than you expected for the student to master a strategy? Explain what you did.

Does the student generalize the strategies and use them in other content areas? Give examples.

What aspects of the intervention contributed to the student’s learning? (What worked?)

2. Would increasing the intensity of the intervention instruction accelerate student learning?

What size is the student’s intervention group? ____ If we try the student in a smaller group, what size should it be? ______

How frequent are the intervention sessions? ___ x week If we try adding more sessions, how many should there be? ___ x week

Is the pacing of the intervention instruction fast enough?
