Towards the Development of A tool to Measure the Impact of School-Wide Academic Intervention

Abstract

INTRODUCTION

Being an effective teacher requires a number of individual characteristics. One should be patient, caring, knowledgeable, and organized. Organization is a key factor to the success of a class. The best way to organize your classroom is to implement effective rules and procedures. The rules and procedures should be grade level appropriate, use positive language, and demonstrate appropriate behavior that is to be expected within the classroom. For example, if one teacher effectively implements a list of rules and procedures with a class of 20 students, then would the same method work in all classrooms in a school? School-wide management initiatives implement a list of rules and procedures that are followed by all students in all area of the school. These include but are not limited to the classroom, hallways, cafeteria, and playgrounds.

Finally, the result of assessment of the parent-respondent's application of intervention activities in their school showed that monitoring got the highest mean of 3.81 with a verbal interpretation of strongly agree.
