An Overview of Responsiveness to Intervention: What Practitioners Ought to Know
Graner, Patricia Sampson; Faggella-Luby, Michael N.; Fritschmann, Nanette S.
Topics in Language Disorders, v25 n2 p93-105 Apr-Jun 2005
A dialogue about responsiveness to intervention (RTI) is being conducted by experts in the field of special education and more particularly in learning disabilities (IIX). RTI is proposed at once as a method of prevention and as an alternative to IQ-achievement discrepancy for diagnosing LD, depending on the author's perspective or the vintage of the literature. Despite parallel interests of so many stakeholders, the role and voice of speech-language pathologists are noticeably missing from the RTI literature. This article presents a compact history, connections to the field of LD, example approaches, and viewpoints of several organizations participating in the dialogue.
