Reviews
"Thorough, descriptive and well-written text. I have already recommended this book to the clinicians on our school consultation team and to the Education students I teach, and it is already well used."--Journal of the Canadian Academy of Child and Adolescent Psychiatry, "This second edition is an essential text for professionals working with school-aged children or consultants assisting classroom teachers. The empirical citations provided for each intervention will assist school personnel in the identification of RTI-compatible interventions. In addition, I highly recommend this text as a learning tool for graduate students in school psychology, special education, teacher education, and educational administration programs."--Merilee McCurdy, PhD, School Psychology Program, University of Nebraska-Lincoln "Covering a broad range of important topics, including classroom management, classwide peer tutoring, vocabulary instruction, and comprehension, Rathvon uses a 'solid science' perspective to identify strategies that make a difference. This text is an invaluable resource for graduate students who are learning that, indeed, some interventions work much better than others to produce meaningful student outcomes. In addition, readers with little background in scientifically based academic and behavior interventions will find this book to be an excellent starting point."--Mark R. Shinn, PhD, Educational Psychology Program, National-Louis University, 'This book has become a well-respected intervention manual for my graduate students in school psychology as they begin advanced practicum courses.'- Merilee McCurdy, University of Nebraska Lincoln, USA, "This book has become a well-respected intervention manual for my graduate students in school psychology as they begin advanced practicum courses." - Merilee McCurdy, University of Nebraska Lincoln, USA "Rathvon has provided a significant link toward bridging the research-to-practice gap in school-based intervention. The book is enhanced by its emphasis on ecological, preventive, and practical problem solving, and by its collaborative and consultive intervention framework. This text should be required reading for students in special education and school psychology training programs." - Melody Tankersley, Kent State University, USA "Covering a broad range of important topics, including classroom management, classwide peer tutoring, vocabulary instruction, and comprehension, Rathvon uses a 'solid science' perspective to identify strategies that make a difference.

This is a 'must-have' resource for school psychologists, teachers, and administrators for building your RTI toolkit. Rathvon helps us to navigate through successful evidence-based interventions in a very user-friendly format. This book is invaluable in offering research-supported, successful interventions while saving time (due to the easy-to-understand academic and behavioral interventions and step-by-step directions for implementation) and money (cost effective with 70 interventions provided). This is a highly valuable and very rare find as a school resource." - Paula Freer, President-Elect, Student Support Team Association for Georgia Educatorsm, USA, "I have recommended Rathvon's book so many times, I stopped counting.
