 * RtI: Basic Assessment Planning and Universal Screening || The Basic Assessment Planning and Universal Screening session will provide information and time for district teams to consider the assessment tools necessary for full RtI implementation (i.e. universal screening, diagnostic, progress monitoring, mastery/in-program tools, outcome measures). The universal screening tool will be the primary focus of this session with emphasis on selection, implementation, administration, and basic data analysis. Participants will attend to the following essential questions:
 * How will we know if our core program is sufficient?
 * What is our plan for assessment administration, data organization, data analysis (e.g., who, what, when, where, how)? || Tuesday, October 19

 * RtI: Tier 1 - Core Analysis || In this session, RtI teams will study the effectiveness of the core program, a task that should be undertaken regularly by the district RtI team. We will begin with a brief review tier 1 and two essential elements: scientifically or researched-based core and interventions, fidelity of instruction. The great majority of the session will involve participants in a study of district core effectiveness using district reading data and the RtI Literacy Analysis Guide. We will guide district teams through a protocol for analysis of core effectiveness that RtI teams can replicate in their districts. To facilitate this analysis and provide tools for action planning, participants will use the RtI Consortium's Partners in Training system. (ESU 6 will help registered participants/districts set up accounts prior to the session.) || Tuesday, March 1
