What happens if administrators require implementation of RTI without any professional development?
In Focus on Results, NASDSE states “…the successful implementation of Response to Intervention (RTI) depends on the ability of general and special educators to use RTI reliably and validly. The reliability and validity with which RTI is implemented will be determined, to a great extent, by the quality of both the pre-service and inservice professional development models used to translate research to practice.” Schools cannot implement RTI in Indiana without professional development and staff commitment.
