What: The High School Tiered Interventions Initiative (HSTII) is a collaborative effort among the National Center on Response to Intervention, the National High School Center, and the Center on Instruction that explores how RTI and tiered interventions are being implemented at the high school level. In this webinar, Dr. Kristen McMaster will provide an overview of Curriculum-Based Measurement (CBM), including the purpose, a brief description of research, and a demonstration of how CBM data can be used to monitor student progress. She will briefly review CBM tools that are available for high schools in reading, mathematics, and the content areas, and provide instructions for developing CBM tools for use at the high school level. Following Dr. McMaster's presentation of CBM in high school, representatives from Walla Walla High School in Walla Walla, Washington, will discuss how they have monitored school progress as part of their tiered intervention model. This presentation is suitable for anyone interested in the researcher and practitioner perspectives of RTI and progress monitoring at the high school level.

Individualized Education Programs: Legal Requirements and Research Findings - National ... - 0 views
-
The individual education program (IEP) is of critical importance to educators, parents, and students. Through the IEP process school-based teams (a) assess the educational needs of a student, (b) develop meaningful and measurable goals that direct the student’s program, (c) develop and implement a program of special education and related services, and (d) monitor the student’s progress toward his or her goals. Our purpose in this article is to review the legal requirements in developing, implementing, and evaluating the IEP; examine the research that has been conducted on IEPs; and discuss the implications of the law and research for school-based teams in developing IEPs.

Click here to download the brochure with registration information (PDF) What: Language for Learning (2008 Edition) is a language program designed to teach young pre-readers language, concepts, information, and knowledge that will be beneficial to them in a classroom setting as they are learning to read. It was written to teach oral language skills to five and six-year-old children whose language is inadequately developed, to four-year-old preschoolers, to primary students for whom English is their second language, to Title 1 and special education students, and to children in speech/language classes. The program uses an explicit instructional approach, entailing scripted lessons, signaled responses, immediate error correction, cumulative review, and mastery learning. Initial and ongoing assessments are used to determine where to begin the instruction and learning over time as an excellent progress monitoring tool used in an Response to Intervention (RtI) process.
