In addition, she serves as the Program Coordinator for an OSEP funded personnel preparation grant focused on the collaborative preparation of school psychologists and special educators and is a professor in residence for a Teacher Quality Partnership grant entitled, Enhancing Quality in Teacher Preparation in Mathematics within Urban Partnerships. Dr. Slanda has conducted numerous national and state presentations focused on collaborative preparation, supporting special and general educators, multi-tiered systems of support, and equitable practices. Most recently, she co-authored the following book chapters: Dismantling Disproportionality in Special Education Through Anti-Racist Practices; Transcending culturally responsive practices: Becoming antiracist and trauma-informed; Developing special educators to work within tiered frameworks; Digital sponsorship of pre-service teacher interns during COVID-19; Reading in early childhood; Writing in early childhood; Exceptional education is special; and Merging disparate paradigms: How do evidence-based practices fit with what we know about how students learn best? Lindsey Pike, MSW, (she/her) is a doctoral candidate in the Exceptional Student Education program at the University of Central Florida. She has over seven years of experience working with students with disabilities in public schools. Ms. Pike is a graduate research associate on a multi-million dollar federally-funded Teacher Quality Partnership grant to enhance the preparation of pre-service teachers to work in urban, high-need settings. Her research and professional interests focus on special education, teacher preparation, inclusive and equitable practices, and intersectionality in education, and she has presented at multiple regional, national, and international conferences on these topics. Ms. Pike's most recent publications include the co-authored chapters "Dismantling Disproportionality in Special Education Through Anti-Racist Practices" in Equity in the Classroom: Essays on Curricular and Pedagogical Approaches to Empowering All Students from McFarland & Company, and "Defying Deficit Thinking: Clearing the Path to Inclusion for Students of All Abilities" in Handbook of Research on Challenging Deficit Thinking for Exceptional Education Improvement from IGI Global.

Currently, she serves as the Principal Investigator for Intensive Interventions, a federally-funded research and development project through OSEP. The purpose of this project is to research, develop, and prepare educators to implement interventions in reading and mathematics to improve K-12 student learning especially within diverse, urban schools. Among her numerous articles, chapters, and books, two recent publications are entitled, Response to Intervention for Teachers: Classroom Instructional Problem Solving and RTI and Mathematics: Practical Tools for Teachers in K-8 Classrooms.
