Simplifying Response to Intervention: Four Essential Guiding Principles

by Austin Buffum, Mike Mattos

Overview

The sequel to Pyramid Response to Intervention advocates that a successful RTI model begins by asking the right questions to create a fundamentally effective learning environment for every student. RTI is not a series of implementation steps, but rather a way of thinking. Understand why bureaucratic, paperwork—heavy, compliance—oriented, test—score—driven approaches fail. Then learn how to create a focused RTI model that works.
