The Speaker
Dr. Kathleen Lane
Kathleen Lynne Lane, PhD, is Associate Professor in the Department of Special Education at Peabody College, where she is also an Investigator in the Vanderbilt Kennedy Center for Research on Human Development and the Learning Sciences Institute. Prior to entering academia, Dr. Lane served as a classroom teacher to general and special education students and provided consultation, intervention, and staff development services to school districts in Southern California as a Program Specialist. From these experiences, Dr. Lane developed her practical and research supported expertise in school-based intervention.
Dr. Lane’s research interests focus on school-based interventions (academic and behavioral) with students at risk for emotional and behavioral disorders (EBD). She has designed, implemented, and evaluated multilevel prevention models in elementary, middle, and high school settings to prevent the development of EBD and improve behavioral outcome within schools.
Dr. Lane is a primary investigator (PI) of an Office of Special Education Programs (OSEP)-directed project studying positive behavior support at the high school level and an OSEP field-initiated project studying prevention of EBD at the elementary level. Her research has resulted in co-authoring four books including Developing Schoolwide Programs to Prevent and Manage Problem Behaviors: A Stepby- Step Approach and more than 80 journal articles and chapters. Dr. Lane’s inspirational and dynamic presentation style captivates participant audiences nationwide.
