Individual Student Level
For individual students, evaluate: Is the student making adequate progress toward goals? Is the rate of progress sufficient to close gaps? Should intervention intensity change?
Intervention Program Level
For intervention programs overall, evaluate: What percentage of students make adequate progress? How does this compare to expected outcomes? Is the program worth continued investment?
Intervention Planning
Plan, track, and measure the effectiveness of student interventions across all tiers.
Data Sources
- • Progress monitoring: Weekly/biweekly growth data
- • Benchmark assessments: Periodic standardized measures
- • Classroom performance: Grades, work completion
- • Behavioral data: For behavioral interventions
Decision Making
Student Decisions
- • Good progress: Continue or begin fading support
- • Some progress: Modify intervention approach
- • No progress: Change intervention, increase intensity, or evaluate for special education
Program Decisions
- • Continue effective programs
- • Address implementation issues before abandoning
- • Replace ineffective programs with better alternatives
