Response to Intervention, or RTI, is a multi-tier approach to identifying and evaluating students with both learning disabilities and behavioral problems.
The RTI framework uses research-based instruction, targeted intervention, screening, and an evaluation process which helps to make educational decisions targeting the needs of the student.
Students have a wide range of needs, abilities and learning styles, and teachers have the challenge of providing instruction and education accessible to all of these students. Here are the top 5 best-selling Response to Intervention reference guides and books from NPR, Inc.
