Abstract

The model for the training of a Resource/Consulting Teacher (R/CT) at the University of Illinois is offered. R/CT's provide direct, data-based instruction in resource settings, with a planned intent to return students to regular classes. The regular class curriculum is used for instruction. R/CT's also provide consultation services to regular class teachers. The major types of consultation are: (1) systematically transferring students back to regular class; (2) offering support to regular class teachers who have students in regular class with academic and social behavior problems and; (3) assisting parents with home reinforcement and instructional systems. R/CT's share observation, student management and recording skills through an applied behavior analysis framework. Examples of data-based consultation projects that have been implemented by R/CT's in colloboration with regular class teachers are included.
