Assessment: Progress Monitoring - A Key Component of Response to Intervention
Within an RTI prevention model, progress monitoring is used to assess student progress or performance in those areas in which they were identified by universal screening as being at-risk for failure (e.g. vernacular letter names, English letter sounds, words read correctly per minute and so on). It should be used by teachers or other school personnel to determine if students are benefitting appropriately from the instructional program, identify students who are not making adequate progress, and help make decisions about intervention programs for students who are not responding adequately to their typical instruction. Although progress monitoring is typically implemented to follow the performance of individual students who are at high risk for learning difficulties, it can also be used with small groups of students receiving intervention instruction as well. View the following presentations to learn more about progress monitoring.
