In Chapter 10 of our text by Lopez, the term intervention is defined as “taking
action so as to improve a situation” (2013, p.123). Lopez also discusses the
theory of “fixing” versus the provision of “extra” support and proposes that
investing and using one’s time “intentionally” is a better investment than
money.
·
Describe how your
understanding and application of the term “intervention” has changed after
considering Lopez’s remarks in Chapter 10.
·
Make a list of
interventions currently taking place both inside and outside of today’s
classroom.
·
Make a list of
interventions that you would like to see take place inside and outside of
today’s classroom.
·
Which interventions are the
result of money, time, or volunteers?
·
After you had addressed
questions 1 through 4, what gaps do you see in interventions? What advice would
you give a school in creating an exceptional intervention model that could fill
those gaps?
If you do not have
direct classroom experience, you may respond to these questions based on your
own understanding of what occurs in your own children’s school, or a
professional or volunteer position you’ve held outside of a school setting.
