In some ways, all of us are the same, but our unique capabilities, interests and beliefs means that the one size fits all model of education does not meet the needs of every learner. Every child can learn. Learning Intervention moves away from the limitations of special education and presents the assessment, learning and teaching and evaluation processes that guide teachers to drive full inclusion in their classroom. This is a must read for all teachers that want to cater for all students needs.

This thoughtful, thorough and evidence-based book systematically explains how educators in inclusive settings can work toward sustainable teaching and learning. The authors deep understanding of a wide range of research, and their extensive, practical experience with diverse students, ensure that their recommendations are simultaneously wise and street-wise. Learning Interventions: Educational Casework and Responsive Teaching for Sustainable Learning is a scholarly and practical book that deserves a wide readership among teachers and consultants. The book will be an invaluable resource for facilitating individuals and teams reflection on, and if necessary, recoceptualisation and redesign of, their strategy for improving the learning of all students, particularly those who find it hard to learn.

To increase teachers instructional efficacy for all learners in the classroom, particularly those with learning problems for various reasons, Berman and Graham propose integrating responsive teaching with educational casework. I highly recommend this book to instructors at colleges/universities involved in teacher training and teachers and educational casework professionals. The former will find their proposal hugely thought-provoking because essentially it advocates integrating regular education with special education. The latter will appreciate the ample and carefully constructed scaffolding provided by the authors to enable them in their efforts to implement the latters proposed model.

In these days of inclusive practices and contemporary implementation science, it is rare to find a readable and yet thorough book that effectively weaves theory, research and actual practices together. This is such a book. Building on the excellent 'Sustainable learning' title, Berman and Graham synergise the key variables in delivering the highest quality learning and teaching experiences for all students regardless of setting or individual needs. This book moves the field forward at a critical time in education and I recommend it wholeheartedly.
Michael Arthur-Kelly, The University of Newcastle, Australia
I strongly recommend this thoughtful and timely book. Berman and Graham have provided schools with a very detailed and well-argued framework for implementing responsive teaching in any inclusive setting. The authors have made clear how the diverse learning needs of students in todays classrooms can best be met by blending evidence-based practices, principles of Universal Design for Learning, flexible assessment strategies, and professional collaboration.
