Analyzing diagnostic data is a critical step of the data-based individualization (DBI) process. In this step, educators review data to help generate a hypothesis for why a student has not yet responded to the intervention and determine the necessary adaptations to improve student outcomes.

This interactive tool is designed to assist educators in developing a hypothesis to explain why a student has not made adequate progress in an academic intervention and to help identify next steps for intensifying the intervention. Use this tool before or during a DBI team meeting to develop an initial hypothesis or to refine or change an existing hypothesis.
