Information
(Data)
Terry Scott: 4 Things we do at each level
– Predict failure (who, where, when, why)• Universal Screening
– What can we do to prevent failure• Tiered interventions
– How can we maintain consistency?• Implement interventions with integrity
– How will we know when it is working• Progress monitoring
Universal Screening/Progress Monitoring
Universal Screening:• All students• Brief administrations 3
times per year (+)• Suggests “At-Risk” for
small group
• Determines success of Tier 1
Student Progress Monitoring:
• Students receiving interventions
• Repeated measures (weekly/monthly)
• Sensitive to small change• Determines progress
Progress Monitoring for Behavior
• SWIS Data• Systematic Screening for Behavior Disorders
(SSBD) Structure• Social Emotional Learning (SEL) Student Survey
Intensity Defined
• Increased amount of time
• Smaller group size; adult/student ratio
• Method of Instruction varied (sometimes, but not always)
RtI Application Examples

educator, reading specialist, Title I, school psychologist, etc.

• Use interventions and set goals
• Contact parent
• Track and collect data for 4-6 weeks (8-10 points)
• Attempt two intervention trials
• Contact and involve parents
• May include systemic instruction or differentiated instructionthat benefit all students in the class
•Record info on Intervention Outcome sheet
If data shows progress:
• Monitor student
• Raise goal and continueto collect data
If data does not show progress:
• Refer to triad
• Contact and involve parents
• Case by case, using the datacollected from previousinterventions, the PS team willdecide to either:
Keep monitoringand try moreinterventions.

Activity: Working Smarter
• What committees/teams already exist addressing academics, climate, safety, social skills, behaviors?
• Look at “working smarter” grid in packet and note your school’s status
• Share names of committees and your observations of their activities
Part 2: Progress Monitoring and Behavioral Interventions at 3 Tiers

Progress Monitoring for Behavior
• SWIS Data• Systematic Screening for Behavior Disorders
(SSBD) Structure• Social Emotional Learning (SEL)
– Expanded Behavioral Referral Process– SEL Surveys
SWIS
• www.swis.org • Web-based, secure, building specific• Features of an existing behavioral
monitoring system• Pilot modifications for progress monitoring
SSBD
• The Systematic Screening for Behavior Disorders (SSBD) (Walker and Severson, 1992) – Developed as a schoolwide screening tool for
children in grades 1-6• Similar to annual vision/hearing screenings
– Identifies behaviors that may impede academic and social functioning
SSBD
• The SSBD is NOT recommended as a diagnostic tool for eligibility for special education services
• A multi-modal assessment process including the use of the Child Behavior and the Revised Behavior Problem Checklists are recommended for students being evaluated for eligibility for special education services
• The SSBD screening WILL NOT replace the current procedures for special education evaluation or any other identification for support process
SSBD
• Provides systematic screening of ALL students in grades 1-6 based on teacher nomination from class lists
• Screens for externalizing (e.g. “acting out”) AND internalizing (e.g. introverted) behaviors – For numerous reasons students with internalizing
behaviors are less likely to receive services than students with externalizing behaviors
SSBD: Proposed interventions
• Pass Gate 1: Universal team monitors (N=6, ~ 20% of student pop)
• Pass Gate 2: Automatically receive simple secondary level intervention and monitor for response (N=0-6). Collect baseline data (ODRs, BEP cards, etc)
• Based on response to simple interventions, youth may be pushed up into more intensive secondary or tertiary interventions
Social Emotional Learning Standards
isbe.net (curriculum/standards/social emotional standards)
• Teaching of SEL standards is required of all schools
• Office referral also used as opportunity for Social Emotional Learning
Illinois Learning StandardsSocial/Emotional Learning
Three Goals of SEL:
31.) Develop self-awareness and self-management skills to achieve school and life success
32.) Use social-awareness and interpersonal skills to establish and maintain positive relationships
33.) Demonstrate decision-making skills and responsible behaviors in personal, school, and community contexts

Progress Monitoring for Behavior Activity (Mingle/Huddle/Sit)
• SWIS Data• Systematic Screening for Behavior Disorders (SSBD) Structure• Social Emotional Learning (SEL) Student Survey
Review the concepts in your small group. How could SWIS data be used to progress monitor?
How could the SEL Survey be used to progress monitor?How could the SSBD be used to progress monitor?
Planning Interventions
1. Problem IdentificationTeacher submits a name to Carol via e-mail or in box…Triad team is alerted…member will check in…meeting scheduled
What is the discrepancy between what is expected and what is occurring?
2. Problem AnalysisWhy is the problem occurring?Do you have enough data or information confirm or refute a hypothesis?
3. Plan DevelopmentWhat is the goal?What is the intervention plan?How will progress be monitored?
4. Plan ImplementationHow will implementation integrity and fidelity be ensured?
5. Plan EvaluationWas the intervention plan successful?
Successful Academic Interventions
• Lunch Bunch– Academic Intervention focusing on mathematics
• Students with at risk performance on Math MAP’s (Fall)• Group based instructional focus – By RIT band• Two 30-minute Sessions a week, eight weeks - Additional

Academic/Behavioral Improvement
• Academics and behavior are linked
• If you improve one the other can improve
• North Elementary School– Increased academic engagement correlated
with lowest # of Behavioral Referrals since the school started official referral tracking

Effective and Curriculum driven Data Based Decision Making
• It is not enough to only gather data
• It is not enough to only look at data
• For effective data based decision making it is critical to– Create streamlined school/district level data
collection processes– Open collaborative communication pipelines– Have data analysis that acknowledges that data
does not exist in isolation– Present staff/student orientated results and
solutions not just numbers

Audit
1.Specify outcome for each effort
2.Identify existing efforts by tier
3.Evaluate implementation accuracy & outcome effectiveness
4.Eliminate/integrate based on outcomes
5.Establish decision rules (RtI)
Implications & Complexities(E.g., Gresham, Grimes, Kratochwill, Tilly, etc.)
• Psychometric features of measures• Standardized measurement procedures• Documented “cut” criteria for determining responsiveness• Interventions efficacy, effectiveness, & relevance• Cultural, familial, language, etc. considerations• Students with disabilities• Professional development• Applications across grades/schools & curriculum areas• Treatment integrity & accountability• Functioning of general v. special education• K-12 applications
Messages
• RtI logic is “good thing” for all students, families, & schools
• Still some work to refine technology, practices, & systems
• Consider implications & complexities for practice & systems implementation
“Homework”
1. Work as team
2. Think/work systemically
3. Develop fluency w/ “Big Ideas”
4. Work smarter w/ existing resources
5. Conduct self-audit
