Professional Development Video Focuses on Sheltered Instruction
The SIOP Model: Sheltered Instruction for Academic Achievement
is a new professional development video illustrating the Sheltered instruction
Observation Protocol (SIOP)—a research-based model of sheltered instruction.
Derived from a CREDE study, the SIOP Model has been shown to effectively raise achievement levels of English language learners. Filmed in a documentary style, this video presents each of the SIOP's eight components through footage from the math, science, and social studies classrooms of six exemplary teachers at the elementary, middle, and high school levels. The teachers elaborate on their lessons and SIOP techniques and teacher educators and researchers describe the theory and research that support the model. The video is a valuable resource for teacher educators and staff developers.
The SIOP Model: Sheltered Instruction for Academic Achievement is intended for use in a sustained professional development program. It supports the book, Making Content Comprehensible for English Language Learners: The SIOP Model (Echevarria, Vogt, & Short, 2000), and serves as a companion piece to Using the SIOP Model: Professional Development Manual for Sheltered Instruction (Short, Hudec, & Echevarria, forthcoming September 2002).
