Description

In this podcast episode, hosts and guest Curtis discuss the concept of collaborative response, an educational framework designed to replace traditional multi-tiered systems of supports (MTSS) and response to intervention (RTI) models. The collaborative response model is outlined as consisting of three foundational components: setting up collaborative structures and processes in schools, utilizing data and evidence to inform conversations, and developing a continuum of supports tiered for different needs but not labeling students by tiers. The discussion highlights the importance of focusing on supports rather than labeling students, breaking down the first tier into two to ensure universal supports are coherent across classrooms, and establishing a culture where teacher ego is set aside to facilitate a genuine collaborative environment. The episode explores practical approaches to implementing this model in schools, emphasizing the significance of structured processes, the setting of clear roles and responsibilities, and the cultivation of a collaborative culture that prioritizes student success and involves all educators in a continuous learning process.Collaborative Response vs RTI and MTSS.
