Common Implementation Dips

Implementation too loosely defined Implementation not managed wellResults are poor or are not knownThe implementation has lost

momentum after some period of initial enthusiasm.

Keeping RTI on Track: How to Identify, Repair and Prevent Mistakes That Derail

Implementation By

Amanda M. VanDerHeyden and W. David Tilly III

#1 Implementation too loosely defined

Strategies: Define and design all efforts within a multi-

tiered framework Organize your system using this logic

Use the same prevention and intervention procedures for both behavior and academic

Create consistent “decision rules” for problem solving and solution finding

Define PBIS within your cultural context and in a way that everyone can understand.

#2 Implementation not managed well

Strategies: Administrator and leadership are key!!! Create an environment where people feel safe Use data tools and provide data information

to others regularly Use Team meeting process (TIPS!!!)

#3 Results are poor or are not known

Strategies: Create effective and efficient data systems

and reporting mechanisms! Understand your data so you can use it for

change and explain it to others Share your data with others! Market it!!!

#4 The implementation has lost momentum after some period of initial enthusiasm

Strategies: Use data -

To survey staff perceptions (SAS) To reward staff and student performance To celebrate success! To narrow scope of focus (hallways, cafeteria)

Take a break between “roll-outs” Acknowledge incremental successes along the

way

Activity – Small Group

In small groups identify one or two implementation dips. Share your challenges and strategies.

We’ll hear a sampling of your responses as a large group….
