Design Experiment Attempts to “engineer innovative educational
environments” (Brown, 1992, p. 141) “iterative, process focused, interventionist,
collaborative, multileveled, utility oriented, and theory driven” (Shavelson et al., 2003, p. 26)
“attempt to carry experimentation into real-life settings in order to find out what works in practice” (Collins, 1999, p. 290)
Involves design-analysis-redesign of educational practice and environments
![Page 3: Persuading Students with Emotional Disabilities to Write: Findings from a Design Experiment* Margo A. Mastropieri, Thomas E. Scruggs Yojanna Cuenca-Sanchez,](https://reader030.vdocuments.mx/reader030/viewer/2022032707/56649e1b5503460f94b089eb/html5/thumbnails/3.jpg)
Design Experiment “often distinguished by the generation of a
comprehensive record of the evolving design process” (Shavelson et al., 2003, p. 26)
Focus on “repeated measures of learning, iterative design; careful delineation of materials, activities, and interactions; description of settings; and use of multiple informants” (Palincsar, 2005, p. 219-220)
Employed in previous special education research to further understanding of complex classroom variables: Palincsar et al. (2001) Gersten (2005) Mastropieri et al. (1998)

Research questions 1. Can the SRSD model of instruction for
POW-TREE, used successfully in previous research, be adapted to work with middle school students with serious emotional and behavioral disorders?
2. What supports, inputs, interactions and modifications are required to implement this SRSD POW-TREE strategy effectively?

Unique Challenges of this Population
Emotional Component to Off Task Behavior must be considered when planning instruction E.g., Anger, can’t stop thinking about something else that
happened
Inappropriate affect for learning Mood interferes with academic on tasks
Oppositional/defiant behavior Do not trust authority figures; not in their interest to do what
you say
Overwhelming fears, including possibly fear of success
Chronic out of class due to any of the above
![Page 19: Persuading Students with Emotional Disabilities to Write: Findings from a Design Experiment* Margo A. Mastropieri, Thomas E. Scruggs Yojanna Cuenca-Sanchez,](https://reader030.vdocuments.mx/reader030/viewer/2022032707/56649e1b5503460f94b089eb/html5/thumbnails/19.jpg)
Common Behaviors & Observations Extended, loud
conversations during both whole
group and individual Refusal to work Irritability & Anger Moody Frequently removed
during class to meet with counselors
Self-awareness of inappropriate behavior
Put themselves in time out
Verbally acknowledged that they were upset Betty said: “Okay, but
you know it depends on how I feel behavior-wise.”
Sam said ”I have a lot on my mind and it is hard to focus.”

Modifications in Instructional Activities and Artifacts based upon Design-Analysis-Redesign
Instruction: Teacher-led instruction, 1 group GMU team-led instruction, 1 group GMU team-led instruction, 2 groups
Materials: Added column for “explanations” to graphic
organizer Wrote essays with missing parts for students
to identify missing essay elements

Modifications in Instructional Activities and Artifacts based upon Design-Analysis-Redesign
Activities: Providing flexibility for task completion.
Tom was allowed to work on his own, without teachers assisting by looking over his shoulder. However, he knew at certain points, he would conference with teachers to check
![Page 22: Persuading Students with Emotional Disabilities to Write: Findings from a Design Experiment* Margo A. Mastropieri, Thomas E. Scruggs Yojanna Cuenca-Sanchez,](https://reader030.vdocuments.mx/reader030/viewer/2022032707/56649e1b5503460f94b089eb/html5/thumbnails/22.jpg)
Modifications in Instructional Activities and Artifacts based upon Design-Analysis-Redesign
Classroom management: When students were getting frustrated
with writing, they were sometimes allowed to take a break, get a drink of water, and then get back to work.
Lollipops were used as additional positive reinforcement when students worked especially well.
![Page 23: Persuading Students with Emotional Disabilities to Write: Findings from a Design Experiment* Margo A. Mastropieri, Thomas E. Scruggs Yojanna Cuenca-Sanchez,](https://reader030.vdocuments.mx/reader030/viewer/2022032707/56649e1b5503460f94b089eb/html5/thumbnails/23.jpg)
Modifications in Instructional Activities and Artifacts based upon Design-Analysis-Redesign
Classroom management: Took time to develop very specific styles of
interacting with students. It took several weeks for “Tom” to have any trusting
relationship with GMU staff and modifications were made on how to handle providing feedback on his work which he did not want to share
Albert had personal space issues and was unable to have us get to close or read over his shoulder
Sam frequently came to class upset about what happened in a previous class and would not get to work until he had time to tell GMU staff what had happened.

Jose’s Essay Pretest
Kids my age should be able to have cell phones because we can use it for emergencies or to call friends.
![Page 32: Persuading Students with Emotional Disabilities to Write: Findings from a Design Experiment* Margo A. Mastropieri, Thomas E. Scruggs Yojanna Cuenca-Sanchez,](https://reader030.vdocuments.mx/reader030/viewer/2022032707/56649e1b5503460f94b089eb/html5/thumbnails/32.jpg)
Jose’s Essay Post TestI would have a $30 gift card as a gift. My first reason is that
I could use it to buy gifts for people I care about. Another reason is to use it to buy some movies or some video games.
My next reason is to save the money for something special.My first reason is that I could use it to buy gifts for people I
care about. If I go to the store and I see something nice that someone would like, then I would get it in secret.
Like the time I saw a beautiful ring that my mom would like I gave it to her as a present for Christmas. Also try to get it as cash and send it to my grandfather he’ll need it more than me.
Another reason is to use it to buy video games. If there is a real cool game that is the store I’d go buy it and play it when I have time. Or maybe a new movie just came out I would ask my parents if they can they take me to the store, and buy it to watch it with them. Save up for a game that I want so when I save enough I can get.
![Page 33: Persuading Students with Emotional Disabilities to Write: Findings from a Design Experiment* Margo A. Mastropieri, Thomas E. Scruggs Yojanna Cuenca-Sanchez,](https://reader030.vdocuments.mx/reader030/viewer/2022032707/56649e1b5503460f94b089eb/html5/thumbnails/33.jpg)
Jose’s Post Test (cont.)My final reason is to save that money for
something special. Like buying stuff for my cousins back home. Also buying stuff for camp, the summer, the pool, a party or for winter and snow. Maybe just saving it for something cool that might come out like a movie or a game. Or to buy a gift for a very special girl that I care about a lot.
This is why I would get a gift card as a gift. It’s important to be careful for the things you buy or get. If you are not careful you may get mad or very upset so be careful.

Teacher and Administrator Reports
Saw benefits of SRSD POW-TREE strategy for all of their students Simple, yet highly, effective strategy Reported some generalized strategy use
to other academic classes (e.g., Bonnie)
Wanted to continue with research Wanted to participate coming year in
research

Conclusions SRSD strategies using POW-TREE are extremely powerful
techniques for improving expressive writing skills for middle school students with emotional and behavioral disorders attending alternative public school settings.
All students significantly improved from pre to post testing on W-J Fluency and persuasive essay writing.
All students maintained essay writing. All students reported positive benefits of learning the
strategy. Some students reported generalized strategy use. Performance declined some what on three month delayed
post test, however, performance was still significantly higher than at pre testing.
Instruction was intensive, recursive, and adaptive to meet needs of students.
Significant instructional adaptations, including extensive review, enormous encouragement and significant continuous praise required to maintain attention to task for this population.

Basis of Evidence for Treatment Efficacy
Pre post change Concordance between essays produced and strategy
taught Teacher and administrators’ reports Students’ reports Students’ ability to describe and discuss and apply
strategy Student reports on strategy use Documentation of several students’ generalized
strategy use (e.g., teaching others)
Outcomes aligned with previous research w/LD
