High Intensity Tutoring Project (Highland Park, Michigan): Analysis and Selection Kit.
RMC Research Corp., Mountain View, CA.
High Intensity Tutoring is a cross-age tutoring project for sixth, seventh, and eighth graders. The project features drill in basic reading and math facts and the use of programed workbooks. Teachers distribute candy and other rewards on the basis of points earned by students acting as either tutors or tutees. Tutor-tutee pairs are assigned so that the tutor is approximately two years ahead of the tutee in reading and math skills. Tutees often advance to become tutors. Teachers and aides unobtrusively monitor tutoring, keep detailed records of the percent of errors each tutee makes, and assign materials tutees can complete with 90% to 94% accuracy. This brochure describes the program's approach and requirements in terms of instruction, management/communication, personnel, materials/equipment, facilities, and costs. Criteria to consider in adopting the program and a timetable for getting started are also outlined. (AA)
