Response to Intervention
  • DBR involves rating of behavior following a specified observation period, and then sharing of that information to inform decisions.

  • RTI resources for English Language Learners.

  • The EBI Network has been developed by Chris Riley-Tillman, Rebecca Martinez and graduate students at East Carolina University, Indiana University and most recently the University of Missouri to provide guidance in the selection and implementation of evidence-based interventions in the classroom setting.

  • The Helping Early Literacy with Practice Strategies (HELPS) Programs integrate easy-to-use instructional strategies that are specifically designed to improve students' reading fluency.

  • NYS Regulations define RtI as a school district's process to determine if a student responds to scientific, research-based instruction.

  • Educators who visit this website will find useful information about RTI including how to build support, tips on developing an RTI program, advice on implementation and evaluation, and planning checklists and forms. RTI Action Network has an extensive collection of RTI resources for educators including discussion boards, an “ask the experts” feature, professional development tools, podcasts, webinars, and many more resources broken down by grade level.

  • Practice guides provide practical recommendations for educators to help them address the everyday challenges they face in their classrooms and schools.

Intervention Central provides teachers, schools and districts with free resources to help struggling learners and implement Response to Intervention.

Here are new resources available in November 2011 on Intervention Central:

  • Behavior Report Card Maker. The Behavior Report Card Maker has been extensively revised. The new version of this free application allows educators and others to create customized student rating forms, called Behavior Report Cards. These report cards are an easy way to record a range of student behaviors, including general classroom conduct, hyperactivity, inattention, and academic-support behaviors. Users can also now save their report card settings online, download report cards in pdf format, and create these report card types: daily, daily by location, daily by time period, and weekly. Check it out!
  • Increased IC Account Capacity.  Visitors to Intervention Central who have created free personal accounts will notice that they can now save up to 20 unique 'documents' (ChartDog graphs and/or Behavior Report Cards) on their accounts.

  • Phrase-Cued Text Generator. This application, first rolled out last month on our site, is proving popular. So we are showcasing it once again.

This is an exciting year for Intervention Central, with lots more tools and intervention resources on the way. Visit often!
