[Simtrainer-l] Strategic Tutoring question

[Woodruff Susan]

Gina …
We tried it in resource settings several years ago where there were usually 8 - 10 students.  We found that while the teachers were initially excited about the program, that in reality it was impossible for them to sustain.  I think it would be doable with maybe two students.  A really skilled teacher might be able to manage three students and do Strategic Tutoring well.  I’m not sure that I would try it again unless it was 1:1 or close to that.  I would be very curious what others have to say.  Tutoring really implies the 1:1 nature because each student brings to the table different assignments and different strengths and weaknesses.  I would love to see what others have to say, though.

Has anyone used ST during small group instruction?  If so, I'd love to hear more about your experience.   Thank you!
