What is RtI?
RTI is the practice of (1) providing high quality instruction/intervention matched to student needs and, (2) using level of performance and learning rate over time to (3) make important educational decisions to guide instruction.
National Association of State Directors of Special Education, 2005
![Page 9: FloridaRtI.usf.edu A collaborative project between the Florida Department of Education and the University of South Florida.](https://reader035.fdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022070305/55156e3155034685568b6005/html5/thumbnails/9.jpg)
Core Principles of RtI
• A process designed to maximize achievement for all students
• Frequent data collection on student performance• Early identification of students at risk• Early intervention (K-3)• Multi-tiered model of service delivery• Research-based, scientifically validated
instruction/interventions • Ongoing progress monitoring - interventions evaluated
and modified• Data-based decision making - all decisions made with
data• Focused on outcomes
![Page 10: FloridaRtI.usf.edu A collaborative project between the Florida Department of Education and the University of South Florida.](https://reader035.fdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022070305/55156e3155034685568b6005/html5/thumbnails/10.jpg)
Response to Intervention is Not:
• About the identification of LD
• An instructional program. It is a framework to make decisions about instructional needs based on student data
• A way to avoid special education placement
• A hoop to jump through to ensure Sp. Ed. placement
• Intended to promote or encourage placement for students
• Intended to focus only on students who are below expected levels of proficiency
• Possible to implement alone; it is a cooperative effort of teachers, administrators, and support staff
![Page 11: FloridaRtI.usf.edu A collaborative project between the Florida Department of Education and the University of South Florida.](https://reader035.fdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022070305/55156e3155034685568b6005/html5/thumbnails/11.jpg)

What We Used to Think What We Now Know
Thorough understanding of the intrapersonal (within person) causes of educational disabilities is the most critical factor in determining appropriate treatment.
Persons within disability categories have similar educational needs that are different in educationally important ways from persons in other disability categories.
Matching treatments to underlying characteristics will result in maximally effective interventions.

Aptitude by Treatment interactions (ATIs) have not been proven.
Educational needs vary widely within and across disability categories
Educational disability results from the complex interaction between curriculum, instruction, the environment, and learner characteristics.

A Shift in Thinking
The central question is not: “What about the students is causing the
performance discrepancy?” but
“What about the interaction of the curriculum, instruction, learners and
learning environment should be altered so that the students will learn?”
This shift alters everything else Ken Howell
![Page 17: FloridaRtI.usf.edu A collaborative project between the Florida Department of Education and the University of South Florida.](https://reader035.fdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022070305/55156e3155034685568b6005/html5/thumbnails/17.jpg)
We Need A New Logic
• Begin with the idea that the purpose of the system is student achievement
• Acknowledge that student needs exist on a continuum rather than in typological groupings
• Organize resources to make educational resources available in direct proportion to student need
David Tilly 2004

Problem Solving
A systematic and structured process that uses the skills of professionals from different disciplines to develop, implement, and evaluate intervention plans that result in the significant improvement (closing the gap) of student performance

Step 2 - Problem Analysis: Why is it occurring?
• The development of hypotheses about probable causes for the identified problem
• Assessment data are collected to validate hypotheses
![Page 26: FloridaRtI.usf.edu A collaborative project between the Florida Department of Education and the University of South Florida.](https://reader035.fdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022070305/55156e3155034685568b6005/html5/thumbnails/26.jpg)
Problem Analysis
The problem is occurring because ________________.
If ____________ would occur, the problem would be reduced.

• Effective teaching strategies consider both what to teach and how to teach it.
• Making good decisions will increase student progress.
• It is critical that the instruction be matched to the problem.
Howell & Nolet, 2000
Step 3 – Intervention Design: What are we going to do about it?
![Page 29: FloridaRtI.usf.edu A collaborative project between the Florida Department of Education and the University of South Florida.](https://reader035.fdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022070305/55156e3155034685568b6005/html5/thumbnails/29.jpg)
Match intervention type and intensity to student(s), setting, problem
Interventions must focus on teaching desired behavior
Select evidence-based interventions that match context of school/classroom culture
Provide support for implementation
Coaching
Evaluation of implementation integrity

Application Issues:Challenges - Integrating Tiers
• Tier 1 (Core) instruction present at all three levels
• Purpose of Tier 2 is to improve success in Tier 1
• Purpose of Tier 3 is to improve success in Tier 2
• Is there a single “intervention” plan made up of different Tier services?
![Page 34: FloridaRtI.usf.edu A collaborative project between the Florida Department of Education and the University of South Florida.](https://reader035.fdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022070305/55156e3155034685568b6005/html5/thumbnails/34.jpg)
Application Issues:Challenges - Intervention Support
• Intervention plans should be developed based on student need and skills of staff
• All intervention plans should have intervention support
• Principals should ensure that intervention plans have intervention support
• Teachers should not be expected to implement plans for which there is no support
![Page 35: FloridaRtI.usf.edu A collaborative project between the Florida Department of Education and the University of South Florida.](https://reader035.fdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022070305/55156e3155034685568b6005/html5/thumbnails/35.jpg)
Need for Systems Change
• PS/RtI is not another project or program
• PS/RtI represents a new way of thinking about how we educate all students
• PS/RtI represents a New Way of Work
• Implementation of a PS/RtI model requires major systemic change
![Page 36: FloridaRtI.usf.edu A collaborative project between the Florida Department of Education and the University of South Florida.](https://reader035.fdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022070305/55156e3155034685568b6005/html5/thumbnails/36.jpg)

Stages of Implementing Problem-Solving/RtI
• Consensus Belief is shared Vision is agreed upon Implementation requirements understood
• Infrastructure Development Regulations Training/Technical Assistance Model (e.g., Standard Protocol) Tier I and II intervention systems
• E.g., K-3 Academic Support Plan
Data Management Technology support Decision-making criteria established
• Implementation
![Page 38: FloridaRtI.usf.edu A collaborative project between the Florida Department of Education and the University of South Florida.](https://reader035.fdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022070305/55156e3155034685568b6005/html5/thumbnails/38.jpg)
The Process of Systems Change
• Until, and unless, Consensus (understanding the need and trusting in the support) is reached no support will exist to establish the Infrastructure. Until, and unless, the Infrastructure is in place Implementation will not take place.
• A fatal error is to attempt Implementation without Consensus and Infrastructure
• Leadership must come both from all levels

Beliefs
• Making the shift to a new paradigm, like PS/RtI, does not simply involve accepting a new set of skills. It also involves giving up certain beliefs in favor of others.
• PS/RtI requires systemic change in the way we educate all students
Ken Howell
![Page 41: FloridaRtI.usf.edu A collaborative project between the Florida Department of Education and the University of South Florida.](https://reader035.fdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022070305/55156e3155034685568b6005/html5/thumbnails/41.jpg)
• Student performance is influenced most by the quality of the interventions we deliver and how well we deliver them- not preconceived notions about child characteristics
• Decisions are best made with data
• Our expectations for student performance should be dependent on a student’s response to intervention, not on the basis of a “score” that “predicts” what they are “capable” of doing.
Beliefs
![Page 42: FloridaRtI.usf.edu A collaborative project between the Florida Department of Education and the University of South Florida.](https://reader035.fdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022070305/55156e3155034685568b6005/html5/thumbnails/42.jpg)
Beliefs• Every student is everybody’s responsibility
• PSM/RtI is a General Education Initiative-Not Special Education
• Improving the effectiveness of core instruction is basic to this process
• NO Child Left Behind Really Means “NO”
• Assessment (data) should both inform and evaluate the impact of instruction
• Policies must be consistent with beliefs
• Beliefs must be supported by research
• Focus on alterable variables
