Abstrakt: High-quality professional development can lead to increased and sustained implementation of evidence-based practices. This study examined the effects of practice-based coaching paired with scripted supports on a paraeducator's use of shared book reading strategies. Indirectly evaluated were impacts on the expressive and receptive vocabulary knowledge of one preschool child with a language delay. Employing a single-case design method, the paraeducator was trained on three strategies (i.e., question/evaluate, expansions, and repeat) embedded within the context of shared book reading. Results indicated the paraeducator implemented the strategies with fidelity, corresponding child-level data was also positive. The paraeducator reported feeling more confident in her ability to implement the strategies. Implications for future research are discussed. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
