- more groups targeted in RTI 
- ongoing monitoring (collected frequently) and use of data to drive services (not just if there is a disability but to guide the students placement)

- Students without a learning disability could be classified due to cultural/socio-economic differences or their status as an ENL

It is generally a faster process than getting a special education evaluation.
It allows students to receive services and interventions faster.

General education teachers may not have the skills to provide special education interventions to students in need of them.
The general learning environment of the students might not be appropriate for them and RTI does not address that.

That data is used to continuously reflect on if the instructional approach is appropriate and effective for that student.

(https://www.p12.nysed.gov/docs/ais-rti.html) “Every student is assessed using a brief screening tool (universal screening-tier 1)…One-minute reading: Each student reads a set list of words aloud, with a one minute time limit. …Students who perform below a pre-set score are considered to be at risk for reading failure”.- IRIS Center There is a chance that slower learners could be misdiagnosed as LD due to the assessment types. For example if a student that normally performs in the high 90’s receives a 55 on a certain assignment they were struggling with could indicate further rti intervention. https://padlet.com/trishburr53/m4tp5lkqlbb09dqm/wish/2444417099 2023-01-14 17:28:58 UTC https://padlet.com/trishburr53/m4tp5lkqlbb09dqm/wish/2444417099 Interesting: many of the information provided have the connotation of prevention rather than intervention and I love that aspect of rti- not going back to catch up it is preventing the need to go back… https://padlet.com/trishburr53/m4tp5lkqlbb09dqm/wish/2444417304 2023-01-14 17:29:39 UTC https://padlet.com/trishburr53/m4tp5lkqlbb09dqm/wish/2444417304 https://padlet.com/trishburr53/m4tp5lkqlbb09dqm/wish/2444417821 With Tier 1 of RTI, inadequate instruction is eliminated as a reason for student's low performance because the basic idea of the RTI approach holds classroom instruction to very high standards

Additionally there are multiple tiers in order to service varying levels of necessary instructional intervention. It also uses frequently collected data to make determinations, and is collected generally by the teacher

Students receive services more quickly, and RTI can be used across the board.

It also uses a students' reading ability, which may incidentally misdiagnose a student as LD, while they may only have deficient reading skills.

RTI is heavily focused on reading (in NY), when it needs to address other areas.

Otherwise, an inaccurate assessment may be made.

2. can help the school meet their progress goals
3. can help identify students with disabilities

It helps to target struggling students before they fall further behind. Preventative measures can be used to improve student performance. -Malik]]> 2023-01-14 17:44:54 UTC https://padlet.com/trishburr53/m4tp5lkqlbb09dqm/wish/2444422439 https://padlet.com/trishburr53/m4tp5lkqlbb09dqm/wish/2444425216 RTI requires extensive planning to develop comprehensive intervention plans, but some teachers are not well-equipped or trained to create RTI plans. More professional development opportunities should be offered to all teachers for RTI. -Malik]]> 2023-01-14 17:53:11 UTC https://padlet.com/trishburr53/m4tp5lkqlbb09dqm/wish/2444425216 Minuses https://padlet.com/trishburr53/m4tp5lkqlbb09dqm/wish/2444428990 1. There may be inaccurate data due to a lack of teacher training.
2. Standard protocol method may not target the students' specific skills needed for growth.
