Download or read book Evaluating a Reading Response to Intervention Model written by Jeremy Brumfield and published by . This book was released on 2017 with total page 168 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This case study sought to explore the perceptions of classroom teachers and an instructional support team regarding the effectiveness of an established reading Response to Intervention model. It compared the perceptions of both groups regarding the model’s effectiveness, focusing on its strengths and weaknesses. The similarities and differences between the two participant groups’ perceptions that emerged from the individual interviews and focus groups were identified and discussed. This research also compared the perceptions of the participants to the success rates of students in the school in terms of the Response to Intervention measures of reading and standardized student achievement on the state English Language Arts assessment. Faculty at the site, Hayes Elementary School (pseudonym), participated in the study and contributed to the evaluation of the model’s effectiveness, using Stufflebeam’s (2007), Context Input Process and Product (CIPP) program evaluation model. The findings of the study, aimed at exploring the perceptions of school faculty towards the effectiveness of an elementary school’s Response to Intervention (RTI) model, were determined through the aggregation and open coding of multiple sources of data.

This book was released on 2015 with total page 308 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Response to Intervention (RtI) is a framework for collecting and using data to match students to interventions of varying intensity. This study examines the implementation of RtI in Grade 1-3 reading in 13 states during the 2011-12 school year, focusing on 146 schools that were experienced with RtI. Full implementation of the RtI framework in Grade 1-3 reading was reported by 86 percent of the experienced schools. Fifty-five percent of these schools focused reading intervention services on Grade 1 students reading below grade level, while 45 percent of the schools also provided reading intervention services for Grade 1 students reading at or above grade level. Students who scored just below school-determined benchmarks on fall screening tests, and who were assigned to interventions for struggling readers, had lower spring reading scores in Grade 1 than students just above the threshold for intervention. In Grades 2 and 3, there were no statistically significant impacts of interventions for struggling readers on the spring reading scores of students just below the threshold for intervention. The following are appended: (1) Members of the Technical Working Group; (2) Data Collection; (3) Survey Sample Definition, Coding, and Analysis; (4) Schools' Decision Rules and Data Used for the Impact Analysis; (5) Estimation Methods; (6) Validity of the Regression Discontinuity Design; (7) Sensitivity of the Main Impact Findings; and (8) Exploratory Analyses.
