__**Research-based Interventions**__ Research-based interventions are strategies, teaching methodologies and supports that have been shown through one or more valid research studies to help a student improve academic, behavioral/emotional or functional skills. The interventions used prior to determining eligibility for special education and related services must be designed to address the skill deficiency of the particular individual student. Multiple sites on the web have information about research-based interventions. Web Resources for Research-based Interventions [] This website has a link to an __Evidence Based Intervention Manual__ on the left hand side of the home page. The manual contains specific information on how to implement research based academic and behavioral interventions. It was developed as a class project at East Carolina University under Dr. Chris Riley-Tillman. [] Of particular help on this site is the document "Strategies to Improve Access to the General Education Curriculum" [] This site has a lot of information about Universal Design to improve learning of all students. Some of the strategies might be used with an individual student. [] This site has content specific information. [] (There is a small "L" after Sub) This site has twenty-one research articles on Teaching Methods. Some can be adapted for individual students. [|http://serge.ccsso.org] This site has resources for teachers in general education working with students with disabilities. Some of these can be used as interventions. [|http://www.interventioncentral.org] offers free tools and resources to help school staff and parents to promote positive classroom behaviors and foster effective learning for all children and youth. The site was created by __Jim Wright__, a school psychologist and school administrator from Central New York. [] This site contains information about practices and programs that help with behavioral and emotional skill development. Although most of the programs are for groups of students, some may be adapted to individual students. [] This site contains programs that are considered effective violence prevention program. Although most of the programs are for groups of students, some may be adapted to individual students. [] This site contains information about practices and programs that help with behavioral and emotional skill development. Although most of the programs are for groups of students, some may be adapted to individual students. [] This website from the University of Nebraska allows access to some empirically-based cognitive strategies. Strategies are targeted at promoting a child's awareness of their cognition during learning. There is a related review about self-regulation and self-monitoring on the site as well. [] This website from the University of Oregon of activity-based interventions (ABI) is appropriate for young children with disabilities. There are interventions in the following broad areas academic, behavior, communication, environmental, sensory and social skills. Some specific links included are contingency management, stress management, discrete trial, toilet training etc. [|http://www.circleofinclusion.org] This is the University of Kansas Circle of Inclusions Project site. This site also has lots of academic learning strategies. [] On website is information about some of the best researched and the most widely implemented methods of helping all students to learn more successfully. The information includes a description of how the teaching and learning strategies work, where they have been applied, results, and where to find further information from experts in the field, books, websites, and other resources. [] This site from the CLAS Institute, University of Illinois at Urbana Champaign, has research-based motor and language skills interventions. [|http://www.free-reading.net] This site is the Free Reading website. Free Reading is a high-quality, open-source free reading intervention program for grades k-3. [|http://www.centeroninstruction.org] This is the website for the Center on Instruction which contains collection of scientifically based research and information on K-12 instruction in reading, math, science, special education, and English language learning. Part of the Comprehensive Center network, the Center on Instruction is one of five content centers serving as resources for the 16 regional U.S. Department of Education Comprehensive Centers. [] On March 13, 2008, the National Mathematics Advisory Panel presented its Final Report to the President of the United States and the Secretary of Education. Copies of these ground-breaking reports, rich with information for parents, teachers, policy makers, the research community, and others, can be accessed at this website. [] Results from the Third International Mathematics and Science Study (TIMSS) are found on this website. Teachers, principals, parents, policy makers, and others wishing to improve mathematics education in the middle grades can learn much from TIMSS by: reviewing some major TIMSS findings related to grades 7 and 8; considering these findings in light of other relevant research on mathematics curriculum content, classroom instruction, and student achievement; and then pondering the lessons from TIMSS and related research about what must be done to ensure that US students have access to better mathematics education that will prepare them for the challenges of today and tomorrow.
