Using the Taxonomy of Intervention Intensity to Select, Design, and Intensify Intervention

This training module, Using the Taxonomy of Intervention Intensity to Select, Design, and Intensify Intervention, introduces the Taxonomy of Intervention Intensity and describes how it supports the DBI process by helping provide explicit guidance on how to select and evaluate validated intervention programs to best meet students’ needs and intensify or adapt those interventions when students or groups of students do not adequately respond.

At the end of the training participants will be able to:

Define the dimensions of the Taxonomy of Intervention Intensity and explain how they support the DBI process.
Apply the dimensions of the Taxonomy to evaluate or select a validated intervention program.
Use the Taxonomy of Intervention Intensity to intensify an intervention for a student who is not responsive.
Access existing resources to support evaluation and intensification.

This module is part of a larger set of presentations that cover different elements of the data-based individualization process for delivering intensive intervention. The module is intended to be delivered by a trained, knowledgeable professional. It includes a PowerPoint presentation with speaker notes and a workbook with all necessary handouts.
