This webinar introduces the Taxonomy of Intervention Intensity as a method for systematically selecting an intensive intervention and guide teachers through modifying the intervention based on student need.
This webinar demonstrates how the Taxonomy of Intervention Intensity can support educators in systematically selecting and modifying intensive behavior intervention based on student need.
Progress monitoring is an essential part of a multi-tiered system of supports (MTSS) and, specifically, the data-based individualization (DBI) process. It allows educators and administrators to understand whether students are responding to intervention and if adaptations are needed. In addition, these data are often used to set high-quality academic and behavioral goals within the individualized education program (IEP) for students with disabilities. With the closure of schools due to the COVID-19 pandemic, educators and administrators need to rethink how they collect and analyze progress monitoring data in a virtual setting. This collection of frequently asked questions is intended to provide a starting place for consideration.
Oregon's Intensive Intervention Implementation Story For over 15 years the Oregon Response to Instruction and Intervention (ORTIi) project has worked with districts across the State of Oregon to implement comprehensive multi-tiered systems of prevention and intervention support to improve literacy instruction that would allow each and every child in the state to become a successful reader. In 2017, ORTII partnered with the National Center on Intensive Intervention and the Oregon Department of Education (ODE) to further build capacity for implementation of intensive intervention at the local education agency (LEA) level.
Texas's Intensive Intervention Implementation Story Through the partnership between NCII and the Texas Education Agency’s Office of Special Populations (OSP), OSP implemented DBI in two pilot schools, hosted a year-long community of practice for district administrators, and partnered with their multi-tiered system of supports (MTSS) network to build modules to sustain DBI implementation. Through those modules, Texas will continue to train regional, district, and educators on the DBI process. View the video below to learn more about DBI implementation in Texas.
South Carolina's Intensive Intervention Implementation Story The National Center on Intensive Intervention partnered with a team representing the Office of Special Education Services (OSES) at the South Carolina Department of Education, Dr. Pam Stecker from Clemson University, and Dr. Susan Thomas an educational consultant working with schools and districts in South Carolina to support data-based individualization (DBI) implementation within South Carolina. During this time, NCII worked with the team to build state capacity to support DBI and embed DBI into statewide efforts to support students with intensive needs, piloted DBI implementation with a school, built awareness through conference presentations and webinars, and held a community of practice with eight districts. View the video below to learn more about DBI implementation in South Carolina and the lessons learned along the journey.
North Carolina's Intensive Intervention Implementation Story In 2018, North Carolina began its partnership with NCII. This video describes the reasoning behind the state’s involvement with NCII and how the partnership is so critical to the work across state initiatives. From the Department of Public Instruction (DPI), their state education agency, to their North Carolina State Improvement Project (NC SIP), state-wide coaches, and institutions of higher education, North Carolina is building a strong infrastructure for intensive intervention and DBI. In the short time since the start, these partners have built a strong system of dissemination throughout the state, utilizing tools developed by NCII to support DBI implementation across state initiatives.
Are you confused about how to support the social-behavioral needs of your learners as you return to school this fall? How can you ensure that all students, including those with intensive needs, have access to instruction regardless of virtual, in-person, or hybrid learning? In this webinar, Dr. Teri Marx and Stacy Hirt from the National Center on Intensive Intervention and Dr. Leanne Hawken, Professor Emeritus in the Department of Special Education at the University of Utah, highlight strategies schools should consider in relationship to their implementation of social-behavioral supports across the continuum of tiers in a multi-tiered system of support framework as they return to school during COVID-19 restrictions.
In this webinar, Dr. Sarah Powell an Associate Professor in the Department of Special Education at the University of Texas at Austin highlights freely available tools and resources that can help educators consider a scope and sequence for math skills, assessment and intervention practices, instructional delivery, concepts and procedures for whole and rational numbers, intensification considerations, and more. The webinar reviews the content available from the Intensive Intervention Math Course Content. The course content consists of eight modules covering a range of math related topics. Each module includes video lessons, activities, knowledge checks, practice-based opportunities, coaching materials and other resources.
