Using Multi-tiered System of Supports (MTSS) for School Improvement ((3 Credits))

Catalog description

Multi-tiered System of Supports (MTSS) is a framework for school improvement that involves tiers of increasingly intensive interventions. As students are identified by curriculum based measurement as exhibiting risk for school failure, they are instructed using interventions designed to eliminate or correct the cause of failure. Their progress is monitored using simple assessment tools. Participants will understand the MTSS process, its impact upon teaching and learning, and apply strategies and data-based decision-making in process implementation.
