Implementing Response to Intervention: Practices and Perspectives from Five Schools
Frequently Asked Questions [K-8] Published by COI
The Center on Instruction is working to identify practices that may be effective in implementing Response to Intervention (RTI) at the school, district, and state levels. This document describes the school-level implementation of RTI at five schools across the country, with particular focus on instruction and the implementation of effective practices. A "frequently asked questions" (FAQ) format is used, with answers based on the collective experience of the five schools (three elementary, one intermediate, and one middle school) that are implementing elements of RTI, including evidence-based instruction, progress monitoring, structures for regulating the intensity of intervention, and professional development. Information on state-level implementation of RTI can be found in Conversations with Practitioners: Current Practice in Statewide RTI Implementation, which is also available for download on this website.
