- 2. RTI Progress Monitoring RTI is a function of regular education that emphasizes preventing learning difficulties before they start and eliminating the need for a student to fail before intervention is available. At-risk students are assessed frequently on specific skills throughout the year to determine if the intervention being used is effective and if the student is responding as intended. © 2012 Dr. Catherine Collier All Rights Reserved
- 3. What is RTI? Response to Intervention (RTI) is a Typical Model multi-step approach to providing services to struggling students. Tier 3 Teachers provide instruction and interventions to them at increasing levels of intensity. They also monitor the progress students make Tier 2 at each intervention level and use the assessment results to decide whether the students need Tier 1 additional instruction or intervention in general education or referral to special education. © 2012 Dr. Catherine Collier All Rights Reserved

IDEA Evaluation Procedures Each public agency must ensure that tests and other evaluation materials used to assess a child under Part B of IDEA: are selected and administered so as not to be discriminatory on a racial or cultural basis; and are provided and administered in the child’s native language or other mode of communication, unless it is clearly not feasible to do so. © 2012 Dr. Catherine Collier All Rights Reserved

Title VI of the Civil Rights Act of 1964 In order to properly evaluate a child who may be limited English proficient, a public agency should assess the child’s proficiency in English as well as in his or her native language to distinguish language proficiency from disability needs; and An accurate assessment of the child’s language proficiency should include objective assessment of reading, writing, speaking, and understanding. © 2012 Dr. Catherine Collier All Rights Reserved

- Here is an example from Washington state in the U.S. of what this looks like. In the table are shown data comparing ELL and nonELL student identification in Special Education categories. As you can see, there is disproportionate representation in specific areas while there is over placement in the specific learning disabilities category for ELL students. Additionally, the data for specific learning disabilities is shown in summary = 5.8% SLD among nonELL but 12.9% among ELL. This is disproportionate without some very outré justification like all of the ELL students were exposed to strange radiation prior to birth or some such.
- Educators have become increasingly aware in recent years of the central role that culture plays in learning and teaching. Staff and students bring to the classroom values about education, work habits, interaction norms, and ways of knowing that were learned in the home and community.No one leaves their cultures at the school door. It is, therefore, imperative that education professionals gain greater awareness of how their culture affects their behaviors, and how the intersection of diverse cultures can impact classroom dynamics and outcomes.Culture is what people know, what they do, and what they make and use. Culture shapes the way we think (cognition), the way we interact (behavior), the way we communicate (language), and the way we transmit knowledge to the next generation (education). Everything we do is influenced by our culture. Culture pervades our ways of thinking, behaving, and believing. How we spend our time, how we teach and treat, how we test and measure, and what we do for fun are all affected by culture.Culture is always both (1) explicit – that which people can describe, such as foods, festivals, dress and (2) implicit - that which people know and do unconsciously and would have trouble describing.All cultural groups teach their children; however, how and what is taught (and why) varies considerably among cultures.
