Explore how the response to intervention uses structured interventions and progress monitoring to determine effectiveness, with problem solving and standard protocol RTI models.
Examine the standard protocol and problem-solving RTI models, including tiered instruction across tiers one to three, universal screeners, progress monitoring, and data-driven decisions for targeted interventions.
Explore the RTI pyramid, from tier one core instruction to tier three individualized interventions, and learn how progress monitoring, behavioral and academic supports shape universal and targeted strategies.
Explore tier one instruction as the core prevention layer of the RTI pyramid, delivering differentiated, evidence-based practices within a guaranteed and viable curriculum aligned to essential standards.
Tier two interventions provide small-group, data-driven support beyond core instruction within an RTI framework, usually twice weekly for about 30 minutes, using common formative assessments to form targeted reteaching groups.
Explore tier three remediation as intensive, data-driven intervention for students behind peers, including SST formation, scripted programs, frequent data collection, and decisions on continuing or pursuing special education testing.
Explore how to implement RTI for behavior, from tier one expectations to tier three supports, including consistent consequences, rewards, and data-driven FBA and BIP strategies.
As educators, you have probably heard the term RTI, or Response to Intervention. RTI is a process that schools use to help students who are struggling in academics and/or behavior. Even though RTI is primarily linked to the early identification of learning problems, RTI is not just a path to move students into special education. RTI is for all students and is based on the premise that all students can learn. Every teacher will have students who are struggling, and RTI is a valuable tool for easing that struggle.
