Key Characteristics of Key Characteristics of RtIRtI
Use of scientifically research-based curriculum, & interventions aligned with academic standards
Universal Screening of Reading, Math and Behavior
Multiple, Fluid Tiers of Increasing Intensity of Interventions
Differentiated instruction, curriculum & intervention strategies
Continuous monitoring of student performance that increases with intensity of student need
Benchmark/Outcome assessment

Instructional Support TeamResources Gained
1990-2006Response to Intervention
Request for assistance by teacher or parent Identification of need by universal screening for all students
Student specific team School, grade, group and, student specific flexible and fluid teams
IST (support) teacher coordinates process Coordination required for each team and between teams across the school
Standards-based core curriculum presumed Requires research-based core curriculum for reading and math
Implemented customized effective instruction for students at-risk
Requires effective instructional practices for all students
Student specific targeted ‘strategies’ School, grade, group and student specific interventions for all students
Targeted instructional ‘strategies’ (with available research-based interventions)
Scientific research-based interventions and standard protocol interventions
Implications for whole group instruction Systematic changes in whole group instruction – differentiated instruction
Behavior problems addressed through “Valentine” model and “Initial Line of Inquiry”
Behavior problems addressed through positive behavior supports
Progress monitoring for students at-risk Progress monitoring for all students at varying intensity
Pre-referral system-led to evaluation if needed Data from process can be used as part of primary SLD diagnostic criteria
Parent awareness Extensive parent involvement & reinforcement between home and school
Elementary student assistance program (ESAP) embedded in IST functions
Schools decide on relationship of three-tier process and ESAP
Teams use problem-solving format Teams use problem-solving format with scientific base and consistent data

A Standard Protocol A Standard Protocol Intervention …Intervention …
Is scientifically research-based.
Has a high probability of producing change for large numbers of students.
Is designed to be used in a standard manner across students.
Is usually delivered individually or in small groups.
Is often scripted or very structured.
Can be orchestrated by a problem-solving team.
