David Tilly, Ph.D

Who Should Attend:

Building level administrators and staff, district staff including coaches and administrators, and others responsible for implementing RtI at the building level or supporting implementation at the district level.

Description:

Implementing RtI at the secondary level presents unique challenges and new questions. This strand will explore the application of RtI at the secondary level and collaboratively problem-solve with participants the implementation challenges inherent to middle and high school settings. Examples will illustrate the application of RtI practices to social and academic behaviors.

Note: This is not a beginner level session. The presenters will assume basic knowledge of RtI viewpoints and practices, including basic knowledge of using data in a problem-solving model. This session will focus on problem-solving secondary implementation challenges.

Prerequisites

Participants who register for this strand should have already had an overview of RtI and have a good understanding of the underlying practices and beliefs and have experience building consensus for innovation at the secondary level.

Learning Objectives

At the conclusion of training, participants will:

    1. Understand secondary RtI practices that increase student achievement;
    2. Experience multiple school examples of using data based decision making processes and tools;
    3. Have practiced useful skills for building consensus, infrastructure development, and implementation of RtI practices;
    4. Gain fresh ideas and a renewed sense of determination to support implementation at the secondary level.
