Individual+Progress+Monitoring

 **// Individual Progress Monitoring //** Individual progress is monitored for students who are identified for intervention within an RtI model. Objective, reliable, valid, and sensitive measures are used in this process. Multiple assessment forms or probes are used at each grade level, allowing regular assessment without duplication of probes. Assessments are administered on a regular basis (e.g., weekly); student progress is graphed for each student receiving intervention; and clearly specified, quantitative progress goals are set prior to intervention to inform decision making. To facilitate the decision making process, graphs include visual displays of baseline data, a pre-determined number of data points, an aim line, a goal line, and phase change lines. Individual districts or schools establish guidelines regarding the number of progress-monitoring data points (e.g., 7 data points) necessary to determine students’ response to intervention(s). An electronic database may be used to manage and document student data and to facilitate ongoing reliability checks to ensure accurate data are collected for decision making. Professional development on the administration and scoring of assessment measures and the use of assessment data for decision making is provided to school personnel. = = =Presentations=

=5 Tips for Running Effective Data Meetings= 1. Designate a Facilitator - This person will... 2. Create an Agenda - Create and communicate an agenda ahead of time. 3. Establish Norms - Have the group establish some operating norms ahead of time. Review the norms prior to each meeting. 4. Prepare Materials - Be prepared with any necessary materials such as student data, progress monitoring booklets, graphs, recording sheets, google docs, etc. 5. Record Interventions/Actions - Develop a systematic way (tracking method) to keep individual student records. Designate a recorder to keep notes. You will be able to accomplish more in a shorter amount of time if your recorder is different than your facilitator.
 * create agendas and communicate them in advance
 * ensure all materials are ready
 * facilitate conversations the day of the data meeting
 * take care of any necessary follow-ups

 * April has uploaded all of her agendas and record keeping forms on google docs and has found that to be an easier way to track student interventions and to keep data current. It's a better way to collaboratively record and track interventions.
 * [[file:esu6rtiresources/Student Record Sheet.xls|Simple Student Record Sheet.xls]] - This is the most recent form April uses with 3 of her schools to keep things simple and documentation current. They uploaded this spreadsheet on google docs and takes notes online during their data meetings.
