ABSTRACT:
To implement RTI for prevention and identification, schools must make decisions about components that constitute the process, including how many tiers of intervention to use, how to target students for preventative intervention, the nature of that preventative intervention, how to classify response, the nature of the multidisciplinary evaluation prior to special education, and the function and design of special education.
