Module 6EVALUATION
As a result of participating in this module, you will:• Evaluate the effectiveness of the Intervention Framework
in guiding your school through the process of: Identifying students with additional learning needs; Assessing students with additional learning needs; Analysing & interpreting the data collected; Designing & carrying out the teaching; and Evaluating & monitoring the student’s progress and
the effectiveness of the teaching.
Overview of Modules
11
Case Study
Each school will identify 1 - 2 students who have additional learning needs in both literacy or numeracy.
12
ActivitySpend some time reflecting on your own approaches to, or philosophy of, teaching by working through the ‘Essential Components’ rubric.
13
1. All students can succeed
2. Effective schools enable a culture of learning
3. Effective teachers are critical to student learning success
4. Teaching and learning are inclusive
5. Inclusive schools actively engage and work in partnership with the wider community
6. Fairness is not sameness
7. Effective teaching practices are evidence-based
Core Principles
14
ActivityDiscuss with a partner or small group:• Which of these principles is currently the most relevant
to your work priorities?
• In what ways does your school or classroom currently operate within these beliefs?
• Which of the elements of the beliefs seem to be the most difficult to achieve? Why might that be the case?
• Many factors go into creating an effective learning environment for students. What role does an educator’s mindset play in creating this environment?
15
Response to Intervention
16
RtI is the practice of providing high-quality instruction/intervention matched to student needs and using learning rate over time and level of performance to make important educational decisions.
What is RtI?
National Association of StateDirectors of Special EducationPolicy Guide
17
> We can effectively teach all children
> Intervene early
> Use a multi-tier model of service delivery
> Use a problem-solving methodology
> Monitor student progress to inform instruction
> Use research-based, scientifically validated interventions/instruction
> Use data to make decisions
> Use assessments for (1) screening; (2) diagnostics; (3) progress monitoring
RtI Core Principles
18
Tier One: Core Instructional Interventions
> Research-based core instructional programs provided by the general education teacher
> Proactive group interventions are implemented for all students
> Decisions should be responsive to student performance and need (progress monitoring)
19
Tier Two: Targeted Group Interventions
> For those students for whom Tier One instruction is insufficient
> Supplement, enhance and support Tier One instruction
> Generally provided in a small group setting over 8-12 weeks
20
Tier Three: Intensive, Individual Interventions
> Intensive, strategic, supplemental and often longer in duration
> Might be synonymous with special education
> Interventions based on outcomes
21
RtI & Problem-Solving Process
• Identifying what the student knows, what he/she should know and areas to target for instruction
• Developing an intervention plan
• Implementing the plan
• Monitoring student progress
• Evaluating, reviewing, and revising the plan
22
ActivityAlign the framework with current school practice…
• Using large blank triangles (with divisions), map what is currently the interventions occurring in your school.
23
Between Modules’ Activity• Read one or more of the articles listed in the handout.
• Identify how an intervention approach would assist you in achieving the goals and challenges you identified at the beginning of this module.
