- The purpose of this presentation will be to describe ways to support effective interventions from both a school systems and classroom level. Response to intervention approaches focus specifically on academics, such as reading, whereas Multi-tiered systems of support are broader and include supports not only for academics, but for behavior and social emotional learning. There are several shared core components for RTI and MTSS including evidence-based core instruction, universal screening for risk, evidence-based interventions that increase in intensity, and more frequent formative progress monitoring. At the school level, it is important that data-based decision making has consistent procedures for identifying risk, that explicit and systematic core reading and intervention programs are available, that teachers receive professional development and coaching to support their use of data to guide instruction within their classrooms.
Learning Objectives
• Understand the similarities and differences between RTI and MTSS
• Learn what effect size is and what it tells you about an intervention
• Gain knowledge about MTSS research and features of evidence-informed interventions to understand how implementation contributes to a larger effect size
• Understand considerations for determining if an intervention is effective
• Understand how resilience factors impact reading outcomes for at-risk students
• Discover available resources which promote more effective intervention implementation
