This webinar demonstrates how the Taxonomy of Intervention Intensity can support educators in systematically selecting and modifying intensive literacy interventions based on student need.
Assessment is an essential part of the data-based individualization (DBI) process and a multi-tiered system of support (MTSS). Without technically sound assessment, which provides accurate, meaningful information, a teacher has no objective method for determining what a student needs or how to intensify instruction to meet those needs. The close connection between assessment and intervention is at the foundation of the DBI process. This connection is what drives teacher decision making. With the right assessment tools and guidance on how to use them, teachers can make sound, data-based decisions about who needs intensive intervention, when to make instructional changes, and what skills to focus on. In the tables below, find resources to support the selection and evaluation of screening, progress monitoring and diagnostic assessments.
In this video, Lucille Eber, E.D., Statewide Coordinator of Illinois’ Emotional and Behavioral Disabilities (EBD) Network and an NCII Advisory Committee member, discusses the relationship between Tier II and Tier III behavior interventions and whether all kids need to access Tier II prior to Tier III.
In this video, Ellen Reinhardt, MTSS Technical Assistance Provider in Rhode Island and NCII Coach shares considerations for implementing a new innovation and why it might be beneficial to pilot the innovation before scaling it up across the entire school or district.
In this video, Dr. Rob Horner, Professor of Special Education at the University of Oregon and co-Director of OSEP Technical Assistance Center on PBIS and the OSEP Research and Demonstration Center on School-wide Behavior Support discusses key considerations for developing effective information systems.
In this Voices from the Field post, Emma Shanahan reflects on her experiences with progress monitoring and data-based decision making as a teacher and shares findings from her recent research on DBI professional development.
In this video, Michele Walden-Doppke, M.A., CAGS, Response to Intervention (RTI) Technical Assistance Provider with Northern Rhode Island Collaborative for Rhode Island Department of Education (RIDE) and NCII Coach in Coventry Public Schools discusses infrastructure elements that support the implementation of intensive intervention.
Wyoming's Intensive Intervention Implementation Story Beginning in 2016, the Wyoming Department of Education (WDE) begin initial implementation of data-based individualization (DBI). It started with four teachers and is now used by hundreds of educators across the state. To support its local educators, the WDE hosts a robust website of DBI resources and available professional learning, including online learning modules and onsite coaching. While the WDE used resources available through the National Center on Intensive Intervention (NCII) for several years and formally joined the NCII as partner in 2020. The impact of the WDE’s DBI work is seen in its increasing state performance data for students with disabilities and the existing infrastructure developed to sustain supports for local educators implementing of DBI.
Using DBI to Improve Literacy Outcomes for Students with Intellectual and Developmental Disabilities
This webinar provides an overview of a project focused on increasing literacy outcomes using DBI, inclusion, and enhancing individualized education programs.
