Effective dropout prevention strategies for educators! This resource offers guidelines for implementing dropout prevention strategies in the classroom and throughout the school system. The impact of increased graduation rates reaches farther than statistics-more graduates mean more individuals who are better prepared to meet the challenges of life after school, and better outcomes for youth, schools, and society in general. With the goal of producing an educated citizenry, the authors present tools and a plan for:Increasing graduation ratesMeeting the standards set by the No Child Left Behind Act Pinpointing the most critical years for establishing a solid educational foundation |
| Synopsis: |
A very practitioner-friendly guide for administrators interested in decreasing dropout rates. The book helps teachers develop comprehensive and effective models of dropout prevention and intervention for students most at risk of dropping out of school. It offers tools, guidelines, and information to use in the design, modification, or selection of evidence-based intervention models and strategies, rather than simply a list of strategies or a collection of programmes. In addition, tools and techniques for implementing prevention strategies into the larger school system are included. The book includes both a research base and real world examples used to emphasize critical points. User-friendly pedagogy includes icon signposts indicating Myth or Truth sections, Quick Check points, Research and Statistics boxes, Potential Trouble Spot areas, Data Collection Point tools, and Food for Thought reflections, as well as reproducible forms throughout. |
