Description
The "winds of change" are blowing and an alternative model for providing educational assistance to students in need is being recognized. This model, commonly referred to as Response to Intervention (RTI), could be good news for you and your child. The focus of this book is how RTI facilitates parents and educators meeting the educational needs of children. The major areas of contention surrounding IQ testing, achievement testing, and the discrepancy model are shared in an easily understandable format, while data and case studies are provided to show that RTI is a better way to meet the needs of children.
