RTI & DI: The Dynamic Duo DVD
Response to Intervention (RTI) and Differentiated Instruction (DI) are two powerful approaches for addressing the needs of all learners. They share many common elements, perhaps the most significant of which is their student-centered focus and utilization of on-going assessments to inform decision-making and facilitate good instruction.
RTI, as a multi-tiered framework, uses a problem-solving process to match the needs of students to research-based interventions. DI is a way to plan/deliver curriculum and instruction to meet the needs of diverse learners. It is through DI that RTI can be successfully implemented. Indeed, RTI and TI are truly the “dynamic duo!”
This DVD will help you learn how to effectively differentiate instruction in TIER 1 (core curriculum instruction) and TIER 2 (targeted instruction) stages of RTI. A range of strategies are demonstrated, such as the use of flexible grouping, support staff, continuous progress monitoring and data collection.
Co-hosts, Lynn Heintzman and Helene Hanson, collaborate in this powerful training and professional development tool to present a practical and understandable approach that enables classroom teachers to practice high quality instruction that is complimented by targeted interventions.
