Describe the Multi-tiered Model for Identification and explain why it is used

What will be an ideal response?


Response to Intervention seeks to reduce the number of students identified for special education services, but its use for the purpose of identification has been questioned in the research. As one model of RTI, the three-tiered approach seeks to improve this situation. In this approach, all students are screened to determine if they are at risk for school failure and are given research-based instruction with frequent monitoring (tier 1). Students who show problems in learning go on to receive more intensive instruction with different formats (like small group) and continue to be monitored
