  2.

  3. Definition • “School psychologists have knowledge of varied models and strategies of consultation, collaboration, and communication applicable to individuals, families, groups, and systems and methods to promote effective implementation of services. As part of a systematic and comprehensive process of effective decision making and problem solving that permeates all aspects of service delivery, school psychologists demonstrate skills to consult, collaborate, and communicate with others during design, implementation, and evaluation of services and programs.” (National Association of School Psychologists [NASP], 2010)

  4. Collaboration in Consultation: Multiple Definitions (Schulte & Osborne, 2003) • Equal but Different • Two experts with different roles • Peer Facilitator • Consultee has more power • Unique Service-Delivery Model • Joint responsibility • Consultant-Structured Consultee-Participation • Consultant seeks input; consultee implements intervention • Shared Assent to Variable Roles • Consultant and consultee define leadership and roles throughout the process; not a predefined process • Equal Value/Equal Power • All parties have equal expertise and decision-making power

  5. Topic 1: Consultation-Based Academic Interventions • Studied the effects of consultation-based academic interventions on children with Attention Deficit Hyperactivity Disorder (ADHD; Jitendra et al, 2007) • Two groups: traditional and intensive data-based academic interventions • Interventions implemented over a 15-month period • Measured effectiveness based on CBM assessments, grades, and individual goal attainment • Results found that there wasn’t a difference between either consultation group • A one-year follow up study found that the achievement gains of the two groups in the initial study were not significantly different (Volpe, DuPaul, Jitendra, & Tresco, 2009) • This study found that the interventions did not have long-term effects

  6. Activity 1: Math Interventions at Grissom • Working on multiplication and division with pairs of fourth and fifth graders • Utilized a “pre-test” • Combine flash cards and math games to help students learn skills • Record progress and amount of time spent working on skills on documentation sheets • Documentation used to monitor and evaluate student progress; also helps guide the direction of future interventions

  9. Topic 2: Collaboration to Implement School-Wide Progress Monitoring • IDEA and NCLB put pressure on schools to implement school-wide screening and progress monitoring • Curriculum-Based Measures (CBM) has been shown to be reliable and valid methods of progress monitoring (Deno et al., 2009) • Oral Reading (CBM-R) – requires student to read a passage aloud for a minute individually with instructor. • Most widely used • MAZE Reading - students read silently and must choose the correct word within a passage at a series of decision points • Can be administered simultaneously to whole class. • Creating and implementing school-wide progress monitoring is time consuming and requires the efforts of many individuals (Deno et al., 2009; Brown-Chidsey & Steege, 2010)

  10. Activity 2: Creating MAZE Passages at Sutton • The 3-5th grade interventionist at Sutton Elementary discussed the need for progress-monitoring for those grades with the principal. • Sutton had used some MAZE passages created by practicum students the year before. • MAZE passages had teacher buy-in • Easy to administer to whole class, easy to score, not time consuming • They needed a larger variety of MAZE passages to use. • The teachers at Sutton could not make the MAZE passages due to time constraints. The Ball State students were asked to assist.

  11. Activity 2: Passage Sources • 2nd years had to figure out where to get the MAZE materials • Children’s literature from the school library? • Reading textbooks from each grade level? • Brown-Chidsey et al., 2005 • Investigated MAZE passage sources: literature popularly taught at grade-level vs. material found in specific grade-level curriculum • Scores between conditions were highly correlated. • Grade-level sources yielded higher scores than literature-based sources • 2nd years decided to take passages from the students’ reading textbooks • 15 passages for EACH grade: 3rd – 5th

  12. Activity 2: My Role • 2nd years set-up what needed to be done. • 1st years were tasked with making the passages • A single set of instructions was generated and distributed • First sentence should be kept completely intact • Every 7th word was to be removed and replaced with 3 choices • Correct word • Near distracter (same part of speech) • Far distracter (different part of speech) • Needed to be between 150 and 400 words • Create a cover sheet with practice sentences and an answer key • Each of the 1st years would have to make 3 passages for each grade.

  13. Reflection • Selecting a method of consultation/collaboration • Understanding the interconnectedness of the NASP domains • My role in the MAZE passage creation • Include pre-practicum students in collaboration next year • The research and planning involved with creating progress-monitoring measures • Use and refer to MAZE passages in the future
