Agenda for Today
Consider RtI - Overview– Connection to Resources– Connection to Middle/High - What we Know
Tiers and Technology– Structuring technology considerations– Technology-based solutions

RtI Primer
RtI stands for?
There are _____ tiers?
Three critical features of RtI include:1. ___
2. ___
3. ___
7
Three Models (Uses) of RTI
Prediction & Prevention– prediction of at-risk students and preventing students from
falling behind
Remediation– intervention for students with academic or behavioral
difficulties
Disability Assessment– an intensive intervention test that is one component in the
SLD determination process
8
Critical Elements of RtI
Implementation of a differentiated curriculum with different instructional methods
Two or more tiers of increasingly intense, scientific, research-based interventions
9
Critical Elements of RtI
Individual problem-solving model or standardized intervention protocol for intervention tiers (possibly in combination)
Progress monitoring to assess entire class progress and individual student progress
Explicit decision rules for assessing learners’ progress (e.g., level and/or rate)
10
What Does RtI Implementation Look Like?
Students receive high-quality, research-based instruction by qualified staff in their general education setting (primary intervention)
General education instructors and staff assume an active role in students’ assessment in that curriculum
School staff conduct universal screening of (a) academics and (b) behavior (> 1/yr)
School staff implement specific, research-based interventions to address the students’ difficulties
11
Core of RtI
Please list three research-based practices that you use across the course of a week?– Describe it?– How do you know it is evidence-based?
12
Do we Teach to Learning Styles?
What Type of Learner Are You?I like to:– Hear it…– See it…– Touch it…– Read it…– Experience it…
What is your Learning Style?
13
Learning Styles - Research-based?
Structure experiences based on the type of learner we believe our students to be…– Offer more visual experiences because we have a
class of visual learners…– Hands-on experiences for those tactile learners…– Auditory experiences for those that learn best
through listening…
Examples?
