Quality Instruction and Intervention: Strategies for Secondary Educators offers an introduction to quality general education instruction followed by the most up to date evidence-based interventions. Two dedicated chapters, authored by leading content and strategy experts in the field, are devoted to academic (reading, mathematics, writing, content areas), classroom management, and study skills. The first chapter focuses on quality instruction with content specialists as lead authors and interventionists supporting. The second chapter focuses on effective intervention with the interventionists taking the lead author roles and content specialists supporting. This unique method bridges the gap between quality instruction and effective intervention-an often over looked component of education. The last chapter of the text includes a comprehensive list of low or no cost materials to support implementation of instructional practices and interventions. After reading, educators will be able to describe the components of effective instruction and intervention in each of the content areas, access empirically validated materials, and locate resources for continued learning.
