A Brief Note On The Role Of Intervention

Response to Intervention (RtI) came about initially in answer to the over-identification of struggling students as special education students. It was developed starting in the late 1970s by numerous researchers seeking a method of identifying learning disabilities that avoids the problems of the discrepancy model. Many educators were concerned that too many students were being identified as having a learning disability, not because they actually had one, “but because they had not been successful in a general education program” (Prasse, 2010). Many were also concerned that students with a true learning disability were not receiving the help they needed quickly enough. Before RtI, the accepted

The intervention “three good things” is the most beneficial intervention of the six which displayed in the article “Positive psychology progress: Empirical validation of interventions”, in our opinion. In this intervention the participant was required to write down every day three good things that happened that day and to provide a causal explanation for them. We believe this intervention is the most beneficial for three main reasons. First, because it has proved to be the most effective intervention in the article, second, by our self experienced and last our general opinion about the importance of counting the good things that happening in our life every day.

This paper focuses on the Response to Intervention. As educators we are hearing RTI more frequently in the school districts than ever before. Many educators and state officials agree that all teachers should know and get to know the benefits and importance of RTI. The most crucial aspect to know is the RTI takes place into the regular childhood classroom; this is not something that just special education teachers need to know. This paper explains the purpose and a brief history of RTI. The paper offers ways that it is beneficial for school districts to implement this research based program. However, as in many systems there are always challenges, the paper briefly discusses some of the challenges that educators

In the article, “Response to Intervention in Reading for English Language Learners”, the authors Sharon Vaughn and Alba Ortiz explain, how much native language and/or ESL instruction students receive depends on the program model. Students in English as a second language programs do not receive native language instruction; they are typically educated within general education classrooms and have a support program for English as a Second Language. In planning Response to Intervention approaches, it is significant to recognize the program in which English language learners are registered, how their native language and English proficiency is measured and observed, and the core literacy program they have for development of

The United States has more citizens imprisoned than any other country on earth. Based upon data collected by the Bureau of Justice Statistics, there are over 1.5 million people incarcerated in either state or federal prisons. Of those in federal prison, 46.4% are drug offenders (Bureau of Prisons). Drug offenders represent a significant number of prisoners in the United States. I personally believe that through the use of the non-intervention perspective, that the total number of prisoners in the United States can be drastically reduced. One of the main tenets of the non-intervention perspective is the legalization of “… nonseries victimless crimes, such as the possession of small amounts of marijuana.” (Essentials of Criminal Justice Pg. 19) Nonviolent drug offenders account for a

Response to Intervention (RTI) is an in school service program designed to guarantee that all students are getting a high quality education. Before students are referred for special education services, it is essential that they receive effective teaching designed to meet their own learning requirements. All students in public schools are required to be included in the RTI program.

Response to Intervention (RtI) is a “data-driven and structured procedure for analyzing students’ learning problems” (Friend 49). The purpose of RtI is to use a systematic approach of increasing interventions for students in order to determine if a student has a learning disability. IRtI is a great program for school to use to help students but it is not mandated by IDEA.

Disability is when a child or young person has special education needs, which stands for SEN. The children's and families act 2014 states that "If she or he has a learning disability which calls for special educational provision to be made for him or her".

Recently in the field of education, a great emphasis has been put on equal access to education and academic success in the school setting. With laws like No Child Left Behind supporting this belief, there has been an increase in academic accountability and success, especially for minority students, in the areas of reading and mathematics. The population of students is increasingly diverse and according to Sun, Nam, and Vanderwood (2010), the population of English Language Learners (ELLs) has increased significantly, representing 5.1 million students or 10% of the total public school enrollment (p. 1). In this population of ELL students 76% of students are performing below grade level in English reading, which is concerning as foundational literacy is important to academic success (Sun, Nam, & Vanderwood, 2010, p. 1). With the increasing demands of accountability and performance and the significant growth of ELL students, Response to Intervention (RTI) has been implemented to support students learning needs. Response to Intervention is a multi-tier approach, which provides struggling learners with interventions to increase learning. In regards to Response to Intervention and ELLs, there is not as much research as is present for the

Response to Intervention/Instruction (RTI) is a new way of helping to address some of the academic issues that middle schools across the United States are facing. RTI is a tool that several middle schools have tried out and many are still wondering about. It has become known for its sense of urgency in addressing struggling students’ needs right away. Students that need help with a subject matter no longer have to wait for assistance, get individually pulled out of class and get further and further behind, and /or have to feel alone.

“Of all forms of mental activity, the most difficult to induce even in the minds of the young, who may be presumed not to have lost their flexibility, is the art of handling the same bundle of data as before, but placing them in a new system of relations with one another by giving them a different framework, all of which virtually means putting on a different kind of thinking-cap for the moment. It is easy to teach anybody a new fact…but it needs light from heaven above to enable a teacher to break the old framework in which the student is accustomed to seeing.”

This patient most likely has a extradural (epidural) hematoma and the temporal fossa is the most common site of this type of hematoma caused by “injury to the middle meningeal artery or vein”(McCance & Huether, 2014, p. 584). “Expanding high-volume epidural hematomas can produce a midline shift and cause herniation of the brain. Compressed cerebral tissue can impinge on the third cranial nerve resulting in pupillary dilation and contralateral hemiparesis or extensor motor response”(Price, 2014, p. 3). Extradural hematomas are medical emergencies and surgical intervention is needed to remove the clot and reduce the pressure on the brain. Whether treated or untreated, this type of hematoma has an elevated risk of brain damage. However, left untreated, patients with extradural hematomas have a high risk of

An aneurysm is a weakening or dilation of the blood vessel wall. If the aneurysm burst it is considered a subarachnoid hemorrhage. Aneurysms occur most commonly along the aorta or in the brain. For the purpose of this paper, brain aneurysms will be the main focus. Aneurysms are life threatening, especially in the case of a rupture. Therefore it is important that healthcare workers have an understanding of the pathophysiology, clinical manifestations, diagnostic test, and the therapeutic management of these cases. This is a brief description of this, however research in treatment along with other areas is still being conducted.
