Response to Intervention: Practical Information
for the Classroom Teacher
Course: W01617 (45 Hours) Virtual Education
RTI is a process schools can and should use to help students
who are struggling with academics or behavior. Even though
RTI is primarily linked to special education and the early
identification of learning problems, RTI is not just for students
in special education. RTI is for all students and is based on the
premise that a student might be struggling due to instruction or
the curriculum in the past, or in the current classroom. Every
teacher will have students who are struggling and whether it’s
short term or long term, RTI is a valuable tool.
