The Self-Determined Learning Model of Instruction: A Practitioner's Guide to Implementation for Special Education

by Karrie A. Shogren, Sheida K. Raley

Overview

This practical guide introduces the Self-Determined Learning Model of Instruction (SDLMI), an evidence-based practice designed to promote student self-determination and support educators in enabling students to set goals, create action plans to achieve those goals, and self-evaluate their progress. Chapters explore integration with Multi-Tiered Systems of Supports and culturally sustaining implementation of the SDLMI. Hands-on tools for using the SDLMI to support students engaging in academic learning, transition planning, and community-based activities are provided. This guide also features stories from self-advocate SDLMI researchers and teachers highlighting how the SDLMI can be put in practice. Clear and comprehensive, this book is an essential resource for every educator.
