Abstract: | Evidence-based prevention and intervention programs are increasingly being implemented in schools and it therefore is becoming
increasingly important to understand the complexities of program implementation under real-world conditions. Much research
has focused on the contextual factors that influence program implementation but less work has attempted to provide an integrated
understanding of mechanisms (e.g., teacher-training processes) that affect teachers' program implementation. In this paper,
we review literature on factors related to teachers' implementation of school-based prevention and intervention programs,
then from this review abstract what we believe are four basic ingredients that characterize potentially sustainable teacher-implemented
classroom programs. Finally, we present a sequential model, based on these ingredients, of the naturalistic processes underlying
sustainability of teachers' program implementation and describe how this sustainability can be enhanced through provision
of teacher training and performance feedback from a classroom consultant. |
