  3. PURPOSE Provide brief overview of features of Responsiveness-to-Intervention for EVERYONE in school

  4. Outcomes

  5. RtI Rationale

  6. RtI Definition

  7. RtI: Good “IDEiA” Policy Approach or framework for redesigning & establishing teaching & learning environments that are effective, efficient, relevant, & durable for all students, families & educators • NOT program, curriculum, strategy, intervention • NOT limited to special education • NOT new

  8. Quotable Fixsen “Policy is allocation of limited resources for unlimited needs • Opportunity, not guarantee, for good action” “Training does not predict action” • “Manualized treatments have created overly rigid & rapid applications”

  9. RtI Features

  10. Response to Intervention RtI

  11. RtI History & Logic

  12. Intensive, Individual Interventions • Individual Students • Assessment-based • High Intensity • Intensive, Individual Interventions • Individual Students • Assessment-based • Intense, durable procedures • Targeted Group Interventions • Some students (at-risk) • High efficiency • Rapid response • Targeted Group Interventions • Some students (at-risk) • High efficiency • Rapid response • Universal Interventions • All students • Preventive, proactive • Universal Interventions • All settings, all students • Preventive, proactive Responsiveness to Intervention Academic Systems Behavioral Systems 1-5% 1-5% 5-10% 5-10% 80-90% 80-90% Circa 1996

  13. “Triangle” ?’s • Why triangle? • Why not pyramid or octagon? • Why not 12 tiers? 2 tiers? • What’s it got to do w/ education? • Where’d those %’s come from?

  14. Tertiary (FEW) Reduce complications, intensity, severity of current cases Secondary (SOME) Reduce current cases of problem behavior Primary (ALL) Reduce new cases of problem behavior Public Health & Disease PreventionKutash et al., 2006; Larson, 1994

  15. Circa 1994

  16. Tertiary Prevention: Specialized Individualized Systems for Students with High-Risk Behavior CONTINUUM OF SCHOOL-WIDE INSTRUCTIONAL & POSITIVE BEHAVIOR SUPPORT FEW ~5% Secondary Prevention: Specialized Group Systems for Students with At-Risk Behavior ~15% SOME Primary Prevention: School-/Classroom- Wide Systems for All Students, Staff, & Settings ALL ~80% of Students

  17. Intensive, Individual Interventions • Individual Students • Assessment-based • High Intensity • Intensive, Individual Interventions • Individual Students • Assessment-based • Intense, durable procedures • Targeted Group Interventions • Some students (at-risk) • High efficiency • Rapid response • Targeted Group Interventions • Some students (at-risk) • High efficiency • Rapid response • Universal Interventions • All students • Preventive, proactive • Universal Interventions • All settings, all students • Preventive, proactive Designing School-Wide Systems for Student Success Academic Systems Behavioral Systems 1-5% 1-5% 5-10% 5-10% 80-90% 80-90% Circa 1996

  18. RtI Application Examples

  19. RTI Continuum of Support for ALL Few Some All Dec 7, 2007

  20. Questions to Ponder • What is “scientifically/evidence-based” intervention/practice? • How do we measure & ensure “fidelity of implementation?” • How do we determine “non-responsiveness?” • Can we affect “teacher practice?” • Do we have motivation to increase efficiency of “systems” organization? • ???

  21. Possible RtI OutcomesGresham, 2005

  22. Avoiding False +/-

  23. Messages RtI logic is good thing for all students, families, & schools Still some work to refine technology, practices, & systems Implications & complexities for practice, systems, & implementation
