This module discusses approaches to intensifying academic interventions for students with severe and persistent learning needs. The module describes how intensification fits into DBI process and introduces four categories of intensification practices. It uses examples to illustrate concepts and provides activities to support development of teams’ understanding of these practices, and how they might be used to design effective individualized programs for students with intensive needs.

This is part 4 of the module, “Informal Academic Diagnostic Assessment: Using Data to Guide Intensive Instruction.” This part of the module is intended to provide participants with guidance for identifying skills to target in reading and math interventions.
This is part 3 of the larger module, “Informal Academic Diagnostic Assessment: Using Data to Guide Intensive Instruction.” This part is intended to provide participants with an introduction to error analysis of curriculum-based measures for the purpose of identifying skill deficits and providing examples of error analysis in reading and mathematics. Part 4, “Identifying Target Skills,” will further link these skill deficits to intervention.
This is part 1 of the larger module, “Informal Academic Diagnostic Assessment: Using Data to Guide Intensive Instruction.” This part is intended to provide an overview of common general outcome measures (GOM) used for progress monitoring in reading and mathematics, with guidance on selecting an appropriate measure.
This training module demonstrates how academic progress monitoring fits into the Data-Based Individualization (DBI) process by (a) providing approaches and tools for academic progress monitoring and (b) showing how to use progress monitoring data to set ambitious goals, make instructional decisions, and plan programs for individual students with intensive needs.
This video shows how to use an area model to solve a multi-digit multiplication problem. An area model can serve as a visual representation of the partial products multiplication strategy. Using an area model may be a good option for students who have not yet gained a conceptual understanding of how regrouping works or how the partial products strategy works. The area model method can serve as a visual guide for students until they are ready to use traditional algorithms.
This video illustrates the use of manipulatives to help students develop fluency in counting by tens and ones.
This video illustrates the use of manipulatives to help students integrate the concept of counting by ones with skill in grouping by tens.
This video illustrates how to use the traditional addition algorithm with regrouping.
This video demonstrates how to use base-10 blocks and a place value chart to help students subtract multi-digit numbers that require regrouping.
