With the adoption of the Right of Education for All (1994), the Palestinian Ministry of Education has indicated the necessity to address the needs of students with disabilities. Although the growth of services has increased to meet the needs of this population, there are still concerns with providing best instructional practices to these students in this novel educational system. This column presents a brief historical background on services provided to students with disabilities, as well as discussing current identification, diagnostic, and placement practices in the Palestinian territories. Future directions are suggested and discussed in regard to the use and availability of evidence-based practices.

We conducted this systematic review to map the literature and classify the evidence-based status of teacher-directed strategies to increase students’ opportunities to respond (OTR) during whole-group instruction across the K-12 continuum. Specifically, we conducted this review to determine whether OTR could be classified as an evidence-based practice according to Council for Exceptional Children’s Standards for Evidence-Based Practices in Special Education. We examined the extent to which 21 included studies addressed quality indicators and evidence-based practice standards using a modified, weighted criterion for methodologically sound studies. Three studies met all eight quality indicators and 11 studies met or exceeded 80% of quality indicators following a weighted criterion to define methodologically sound studies. Results indicated teacher-directed OTR strategy of response cards in K-12 school settings to be a potentially evidence-based practice. Educational implications, limitations, and future directions are discussed.

This special edition of Professional School Counseling presents some of the key proceedings from the sixth annual Evidence-Based School Counseling Conference (EBSCC). The EBSCC exists to provide professional development around effective school counseling program components and interventions, especially related to evidence-based practices and other cutting-edge innovations in school counseling. We offer a brief history of the EBSCC, a definition of evidence-based school counseling, and an overview of the contents of this special issue. Future directions for evidence-based school counseling conclude the article.

Partnerships between schools and universities can be beneficial for all parties involved, particularly when their interests and goals for the partnership overlap. The Gifted Education Research and Resource Institute (GER2I) and Tippecanoe School Corporation (TSC) formalized a collaborative effort to improve identification procedures for students with gifts and talents, provide high-quality professional development for teachers, create services and resources for families, and develop evidence-based practices through research opportunities for graduate students and faculty. Suggestions for practitioners and university partners are discussed, along with future directions for the existing partnership.

The purpose of this article is to examine future directions in rehabilitation counseling research that will build on prior investigations to improve rehabilitation outcomes and enhance the quality of life of people with disabilities. The authors discuss the role of theory in guiding future research and implementing evidence-based practices. Next, they recommend topics to be further investigated in future inquiry. The article concludes with an exploration of emerging research approaches and techniques that are either beginning to be used by rehabilitation researchers or, if not being used, have the potential to contribute to the rehabilitation counseling knowledge base.


This volume presents the latest research on language, literacy and numeracy, cognition, and social and emotional development of deaf learners. It is written by internationally recognized researchers and practitioners. In their contributions they discuss the backgrounds and contexts of their research, take interdisciplinary perspectives in merging their own research results with outcomes of relevant research of others, and examine the consequences and future directions for teachers and teaching. The volume focuses on the topic of transforming state-of-the-art research into teaching practices in deaf education. It does so by addressing how we can improve outcomes of deaf education through professional development of teachers, construction and implementation of evidence-based teaching practices, and considering “the whole child,” thus emphasizing the importance of integrative, interdisciplinary approaches.

Implementation of evidence-based assessment and intervention approaches for youth with behavioral and/or emotional problems is rising to recognition worldwide. Feasibility research is critical to examine what characteristics of systems allow for success or barriers to the implementation of evidence-based practices into real-world settings, especially when working cross-culturally. This paper briefly reviews the experience of 4 international sites to understand how the overall structure and specific site variables directed the implementation of the World Health Organization and the World Psychiatry Association project. Discussion includes a thematic summary of the successes and challenges experienced by the sites, and future directions of feasibility studies.
