The purpose of this site is to provide an easily accessible database of various research-supported or evidence-based methods and strategies that can be used to improve the school performance of students identified as “disabled” or “at-risk”. Within each topic, there are individual files which contain:
a description of the practice or program
the grade level(s) for which the practice or program is most appropriate
a “how to” implementation guide
things to consider
references and resources for further information
The site was created by pre-service special educators and their instructors at Eastern Illinois University as an outreach effort to assist busy teachers in translating research to practice. Please feel free to access it often as new information will be added periodically. Furthermore, you are encouraged to reference or link this site to your personal, agency, or school site. Feedback is welcomed and appreciated. Please help us help you serve students well!
