- improve students' communication skills through naturalistic language strategies
- expertly organize and deliver small-group systematic instruction
- enhance instruction with assistive technology
- plan successful instructional schedules for students across settings and teachers

And the practical materialsincluding 20 blank data collection sheets and quick step-by-step charts of instruction proceduresmake this an invaluable resource for in-practice educators.
