Response to Intervention Quizes Flashcards
What are Some keys to RtI implementation
administrative support, staff support, 3-5 years to
implement, and ongoing professional development.
What is a potential benefit of using curriculum-based measurement (CBM) in
problem-solving assessment?
- Improving individual instructional programs with formative assessment
- Increasing ease of communication with clearer goals and data presentation
- Screening for at risk students
- Evaluating effects of pre-referral intervention
What are some challenges existing with RTI at the secondary level?
Complexity of scheduling issues
b. Lack of intervention resources
c. Secondary level students may not prefer to be singled out when receiving more intensive instructional supports
Why it may not be necessary to do universal screening at secondary levels to identify
students at risk for academic failure?
Because using existing assessment data (e.g., state assessments)
from the student’s academic history and teacher nomination shall be
sufficient

Allocate/align educational resources efficiently to meet different students’ needs
Identify students who do not adequately respond to instruction so the teacher can make
necessary adjustment(s)
Compare efficacy of different instruction/interventions with progress-monitoring data
What are some concerns about the IQ-achievement discrepancy model?
it is a wait to fail practice, does not assess quality instruction, and does not yield useful information to inform subsequent instruction
What are some benefits of using RTI
Early identification of at-risk students, tiered service with high quality evidence based instruction/interventions, reduces inappropriate referrals, data-based decision making, cost effect, considers culture and language in the process
What questions does Progress Monitoring Answer?
Are students meeting short and long term goals, is adequate progress being meet?
Which level focuses on all students and the research based core curriculum?
Primary
The secondary level is what
supplemental to primary instruction, closely alligned with core curriculum. Is administered in small groups and assessments are progress monitoring and diagnostic measures.
Tertiary
for students that did not respond to 1st or 2nd levels. Intense and individual instruction.
