Keeping RTI on Track: How to Identify, Repair and Prevent Mistakes That Derail Implementation By Amanda M. VanDerHeyden and W. David Tilly III
#1 Implementation too loosely defined Strategies: • Define and design all efforts within a multi-tiered framework • Organize your system using this logic • Use the same prevention and intervention procedures for both behavior and academic • Create consistent “decision rules” for problem solving and solution finding • Define PBIS within your cultural context and in a way that everyone can understand.
#2 Implementation not managed well Strategies: • Administrator and leadership are key!!! • Create an environment where people feel safe • Use data tools and provide data information to others regularly • Use Team meeting process (TIPS!!!)
#3 Results are poor or are not known Strategies: • Create effective and efficient data systems and reporting mechanisms! • Understand your data so you can use it for change and explain it to others • Share your data with others! • Market it!!!
#4 The implementation has lost momentum after some period of initial enthusiasm Strategies: • Use data - • To survey staff perceptions (SAS) • To reward staff and student performance • To celebrate success! • To narrow scope of focus (hallways, cafeteria) • Take a break between “roll-outs” • Acknowledge incremental successes along the way
Activity – Small Group • In small groups identify one or two implementation dips. Share your challenges and strategies. • We’ll hear a sampling of your responses as a large group….
