Description
Meeting a key need, this is the first comprehensive guide to implementing a schoolwide response to intervention (RTI) program. The book is geared to helping practitioners understand and respond to No Child Left Behind and to the new special education eligibility guidelines outlined in IDEA 2004. Presented are the theoretical and empirical foundations of the approach and a clear, 10-step model for conducting RTI procedures with students, including those from diverse backgrounds, who are experiencing learning difficulties. Helpful reproducibles include 11 worksheets and more than two dozen overhead transparency masters, in a large-size format with lay-flat binding to facilitate photocopying.
Reviews / Votes
'The authors present a clear foundation, rationale, and framework to implement an RTI model. In an age of standards-based accountability, school personnel must have access to models and methods for data-based decision making. This text effectively communicates how to collect and use data to better understand the relationship between the educational environment and student progress. In this way, the text will support the preparation and training of educators as practitioner-scientists -professionals who know how to use assessment data dynamically to modify the instructional environment and maximize student outcomes.' - Theodore J. Christ, PhD, School Psychology Program, University of Minnesota, USAMore details
