Explore how the response to intervention uses structured interventions and progress monitoring to determine effectiveness, with problem solving and standard protocol RTI models.
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.

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.
