How Progress Monitoring Assists Decision Making in a Response to Instruction Framework
National Center for Student Progress Monitoring
Researchers at the National Center for Student Progress Monitoring studied a Response to Instruction model as a method of identifying children for special education services. To judge responsiveness, curriculum-based measures of oral reading fluency were used to monitor progress. This process generated a number of examples of how weekly progress monitoring, which includes systematic data interpretation and teacher action, is central to good decision making in an RtI framework. Two children are discussed whose profiles illustrate different aspects of the progress monitoring-RtI interface.

Response to Intervention (RTI): 3 Tiered System A Model to Meet Student Needs in the Minneapolis Public Schools
Minneapolis Public Schools
This webinar was presented by Tom Hegranes, Ann Casey, and Doug Marston from the Minneapolis Public Schools on June 20, 2006. Since the mid-1990's, Minneapolis Public Schools (MPS) has implemented a problem-solving approach to delivering early intervening services to struggling learners. This approach involves documenting student responses to interventions and, when satisfactory progress is not made, referring children for special education evaluation. The Minneapolis Problem-Solving Model is similar to the response to intervention approach (RtI) authorized under IDEA 2004.
