Response to Intervention Intermediate Collection

The Presenter's Guide and accompanying PowerPoint provide an overview of Response to Intervention as presented in Response to Intervention: Policy Considerations and Implementation, published by the National Association of State Directors of Special Education. The document was written by nine practitioners and was created to provide policy guidance to states and local education agencies on conceptual issues related to Response to Intervention implementation.


 

This can be used for staff and administrator professional development. An important aspect of working with this document is connecting the ideas in the presentation to practices in your school district. Coaching notes are provided in this presentation for use with different constituent groups. This presentation has intermediate level content and is intended for audiences with “a working level” knowledge of Response to Intervention.
