Join our next RTI Talk:
RTI and Universal Screening
September 11, 2008
1-2 p.m. ET
An essential component of RTI, universal screening of all students enables educators to establish an academic and behavioral baseline and to identify learners who need additional support. Instructional decisions can then be made based on the screening results to improve learner outcomes. Universal screening is the key to a prevention model, helping classroom teachers to differentiate their instruction and/or provide early intervening services so that students can be assisted before they fall too far behind.
Join Joseph Jenkins, Professor of Special Education at the University of Washington, and Marjorie Lipson, Professor of Education at the University of Vermont, as they discuss the importance of universal screening and how it is used under an RTI framework while answering your questions about RTI and Universal Screening.
