individuals.
Multi-Tiered System of Supports (MTSS)

nonsystematic, or informal, observation
the observer simply watches an individual in his or her environment and notes the behaviors,
characteristics, and personal interactions that seem significant.
systematic observation
the observer sets out to observe one or more precisely defined behaviors. The observer
specifies observable events that define the behavior and then counts the frequency or
measures the frequency, duration, amplitude, or latency of the behaviors.
Quantitative data
,observations that have been tabulated or otherwise given numerical values. They are the actual
scores achieved on the test. Lee scored 80 on her math test.
Qualitative data
pieces of information collected based on nonsystematic and unquantified observations. These
may consist of other observations made while a student is tested; they tell us how Lee achieved
her score.
screening
the collection of assessment information for the purpose of deciding whether students have
unrecognized problems (vision, hearing)
progress monitoring
(1) Is the student making adequate progress toward individual goals? and (2) Is the student
making adequate progress toward common core standards or specified state standards?
instructional planning and modification
the collection of assessment information for the purpose of planning individualized instruction
or making changes in the instruction students are receiving.
eligibility
the collection and use of assessment information to decide whether a student meets the state

to determine a child's specific learning strengths and needs. & to determine whether or not a
child is eligible for special education services
What is the assessment process?
1. child find
2. full and individual evaluation of the child by a Multidisciplinary team
3. Determination of Eligibility for special education (60 days)
4. IEP meeting (30 days)
5. Progress monitoring
6. Annual IEP review (every 12 months)
7. Re-evaluation (every 3 years)
,Larry P. v. Riles (1979)
Case Ruled that IQ test could not be used as the primary or sole basis of placing students in
special programs.

determination of eligibility at no cost to the parents.
legal process (step 2/3)
B. Special rule for eligibility determination. A child must not be determined to have a disability
because of...
1. Lack of appropriate instruction in reading and math
2. Limited English proficiency
legal process (step 3/3)

multitiered systems of supports (MTSS)
the framework for implementing response to instruction (RTI), giving teachers the structure and
flexibility they need to address the needs of individual students. Covers all academics, all behavior and
all social emotional
(RTI) Response to Intervention
a multi-tiered approach for delivering instruction through increasingly intensive levels of interventions.

Universal screening
All students undergo a brief screening measure. This assessment is given one to three times per year
(i.e., in the fall, winter, and spring). Through it, students at risk for academic failure are identified.
Tier 1
All students- Universal screening, differentiation of instruction
Tier 2
Some Students- students identified through screening as at risk for poor learning outcomes. Targeted
supplemental instruction delivered to small groups
Tier 3
Few students- students who have not responded to instruction, or who present with very low
achievement. Intensive, individualized interventions adapted to address individual student needs.
rate of improvement (ROI)
trend or slope in improvement and can be calculated in a way that allows for a comparison either to
grade-level peers or to individual goals or targets that are set for the student.
provides information about the extent to which an intervention is working or is effective and about the
extent to which the student is making as much progress as would be expected or desired.
typical benchmark
represents a minimal standard for performance, and helps to indicate the growth rate required of a
grade-level peer during the course of regular instruction to meet the minimal level required of all
students
