Progress Monitoring
the process of collecting and analyzing data over time to measure student
performance and evaluate the effectiveness of instruction
Progress monitoring practices
Implementing effective progress monitoring practices enables educators to utilize
data to improve instructional practices and meet individual needs of students.
Schoolwide screening measures
are intended to be easy to implement and score yet still provide a general picture
of academic achievement in a particular area, such as reading. Can be
administered 3 times a year.
T/F Progress monitoring is conducted in all tiers of instruction?
True, This is one of the eight features of effective progress monitoring.
Screening Measures
can help to identify which students need additional support in order to be
successful in school
T/F To facilitate data collection, measures must be easy to administer and
effective?
True, This is one of the eight features of effective progress monitoring.
T/F Cut scores and decision rules must have clear rationale?
True, This is one of the eight features of effective progress monitoring.
T/F Progress monitoring data must be collected daily on every student?
False, while it is important to collect progress monitoring data often, daily is not
always required. measures must be collected frequently enough to inform
instructional and placement decisions.
, T/F Rules for decision-making must be determined for all aspects of progress-
monitoring data, including cut scores for level (performance score), slope (change
in performance over time), and percentage of mastery?
True, This is one of the eight features of effective progress monitoring.
T/F Progress monitoring data are often hard to interpret, so teachers must be
extensively trained on how to display and interpret progress monitoring data?
False, Results should be displayed in a manner that makes interpretation simple
and efficient, for example, in charts or line graphs.
Tier 1 Instruction
Encompasses whole-school quality differentiated instruction and support for all
students.
Tier 2 Instruction
small groups are typically used in tier 2 of RTI, as they allow for targeted
interventions for struggling students.
Tier 3 Instruction
one on one. Require individualized goals. Their progress toward goals requires
more frequent measuring to determine the effectiveness of the intervention
Data-based Individualization (DBI)
A means of using evidence-based methods to individualize interventions for
students who do not demonstrate adequate progress
Sara was identified with a low level of performance in mathematics and has been
receiving tier 1 supports. Her weekly progress monitoring showed that she
continued to have a reduced rate of progress.
What happens next with Sara, based on this result?
Student should be considered for tier 2 supports.
T/F Curriculum-based measurements are an appropriate means to conduct
progress monitoring.
