This article explores the different levels of readiness for implementing Response to Intervention (RTI) in schools. It covers the stages of exploration, preparation, initial implementation, full implementation, and innovation. It also provides practical strategies and resources for each stage.

Response To Intervention: How ready are you? K W L • Which level do you fall into? • Exploration- a small team does research to learn as much as they can about RTI in determining how to implement such an approach • 2. Preparation - begins when the decision to implement is made and continues until the first use of the innovation • 3. Initial Implementation- where the “rubber meets the road” as many teachers try to use new practices in their day • 4. Full Implementation- practices have been installed and most professionals are comfortable & operating smoothly • 5. Innovation- after implementing the innovation the way it was laid out, this is the time to try to make improvements
Response To Intervention: How ready are you?

Preparation - begins when the decision to implement is made and continues until the first use of the innovation • 2. Needs assessment for school/district • Planning & assigning job responsibilities, • Identifying researched based programs • Construct organizational plan for school/district • Initial team building & training for schools • Pilot site development, selection & training • Develop procedural document
Response To Intervention: How ready are you? K W L Which level do you fall into? 3. Initial implementation- where the “rubber meets the road” as many teachers try to use new practices in their day • 3. Utilize specific research based practices • Plan, develop, and test screening process • Form a intervention team (key people) & • analyze progress goals or screening results
Response To Intervention: How ready are you? K W L Which level do you fall into? 4. Full Implementation- practices have been installed and most professionals are comfortable & operating smoothly • 4. Expand screening process to other schools • Plan and test a new content area intervention • Observe and improve skills of school staff • Plan, train, & implement online data tracking tool • Analyze and align all support services in school
Response To Intervention: How ready are you? K W L Which level do you fall into? 5. Innovation- after implementing the innovation the way it was laid out, this is the time to try to make improvements • 5. District wide student data analysis and • interpretation project using web or other database tools • Do practices reflect adoption of RTI process
