  • Title: Specialized instruction within general education: a case study of one elementary school.
    Author: Jenkins JR, Leicester N.
    Journal: Except Child; 1992 May; 58(6):555-63. PubMed ID: 1592081.
    Abstract:
    This study examined how classroom teachers in one elementary school approached the problem of designing specialized instruction for students with reading problems. We asked 12 teachers to rate their confidence in designing effective interventions and then to diagnose a student's reading problem, select an intervention, and implement it. Teachers were moderately confident about their ability to design effective interventions; but some teachers expressed doubts about how to proceed. Their approach to intervention differed somewhat from that of special education resource teachers. Some teachers experienced considerable difficulty in implementing the interventions they selected.
