Response to Intervention: What’s Behavior Got to Do with It? George Sugai OSEP Center on PBIS Center for Behavioral Education & Research University of Connecticut May 25 2011 www.pbis.orgwww.scalingup.orgwww.cber.org
PURPOSE Describe features, practices, research, & examples related to RtI, PBIS, & pre-/in-service professional development
Foundations of Positive Behavioral Interventions & Supports
SWPBS Logic! Successful individual student behavior support is linked to host environments or school climates that are effective, efficient, relevant, durable, salable, & logical for all students (Zins & Ponti, 1990)
Surgeon General’s Report on Youth Violence (2001) • Coordinated Social Emotional & Learning (Greenberg et al., 2003) • Center for Study & Prevention of Violence (2006) • White House Conference on School Violence (2006) PREVENTION SCIENCE LITERATURE
SWPBS (aka PBIS/RtI) is Framework
Integrated Elements Supporting Social Competence & Academic Achievement OUTCOMES 15 Supporting Decision Making Supporting Staff Behavior DATA SYSTEMS PRACTICES Supporting Student Behavior

“Viewed as outcomes, achievement and behavior are related; viewed as causes of each other, achievement and behavior are unrelated. In this context, teaching behavior as relentlessly as we teach reading or other academic content is the ultimate act of prevention, promise, and power underlying PBS and other preventive interventions in America’s schools.” Algozzine, Wang, & Violette (2011), p. 16.

MessageApply RtI Logic to School Improvement - Current Practice - • Large # priorities • Large # interventions • Large professional development plan • Large data collection plan + Rti Logic + • Screening for unresponsiveness • Small # priorities • Continuous progress monitoring • Continuous implementation fidelity • Increase priority teaching & learning time
Problem Statement “We give schools strategies & systems for improving practice & outcomes, but implementation is not accurate, consistent, or durable, & desired outcomes aren’t realized. School personnel & teams need more thanexposure, practice, & enthusiasm.”
