| 抄録: | This study was designed to: (1) determine whether Texas public schools comply with state law and regulations related to tutorial programs; (2) assess the current status of tutorial programs; and (3) elicit information as to how tutorial programs can be made more effective. Ninety-four respondents from twelve Texas public school districts completed a survey data form. Most districts were in substantial compliance with the law and rules. All sampled schools complied with rules related to the purpose of tutorials; courses offered at appropriate grade levels; scheduling and time requirements; tutor remuneration; entrance criteria; and using certified personnel as primary tutors. Areas of non-compliance included involvement of parents, the requirement that certified teachers determine the extent of non-professional tutor involvement, and the exclusion of special populations from tutorials. The survey data provided insight into current tutorial programs, indicating a variety of practices. Many schools offered tutorial services in excess of state requirements. Respondents overwhelmingly indicated that tutorials classes are helpful to failing students. A few recommendations were offered. Included were more one-on-one instruction, more parental involvement, transportation for tutored students, and mandatory tutorials for failing students. Some implications were evident: (1) school districts should identify areas where improvement is needed; (2) staff training is needed to prepare tutors; and (3) intermediate service agencies and universities should offer assistance to schools in the area of tutorial programs and services. |
