Discussion: Evaluation Rubric for Collaborating Around the SMARTER Instructional Cycle
Presenter: B. Keith Lenz
We will share data and discuss findings from RCT studies measuring the impact of two comprehensive programs designed to meet the transition needs of adolescents with LD. Skills related to transition were assessed for student-identified goals, level of hope, class attendance, retention, grades, acquisition of self-determined behaviors, and fidelity of implementation. The studies measured the impact of Possible Selves and Possible Selves plus the Self-Determined Learning Model of Instruction on student transition outcomes.
Presenters: Mike Hock and Tonya Eberhart
