As such TVIs in a Midwestern state (N=56) completed a survey which asked them to report their level of familiarity, use, and perceived effectiveness of Evidence-Based Practices (EBPs) in their classrooms. Results show much incongruity in the familiarity, use, and perceived effectiveness of EBPs by TVIs. The data indicates that TVIs may need more resources and consistent training in practices that go beyond what they know in order to meet the needs of all students in their classrooms. .. View More»
