mjjohnson1216 Aug 9 @ 8:09 PM EDT

A1. Consistency requires buy-in from all of those who are using it. Without value from results they won't walk the walk #diverged

memayer21 Aug 9 @ 8:09 PM EDT

@lmstump absolutely! We must not be afraid to get outside the box to help kids #divergED #KidsDeserveIt

SocratesAsksWhy Aug 9 @ 8:09 PM EDT

A1: Procedures have to be on place. Follow up meetings and discussions happen to maintain consistency. #divergED

mrbbettis Aug 9 @ 8:09 PM EDT

A1: Impactful interventions require frequent dialogue among stakeholders. Are they quality? Are they working? If not, change! #divergED

tsschmidty Aug 9 @ 8:09 PM EDT

A1b: We also reviewed our referral process to ensure that collaboration & supports are attempted in increasing levels prior to RSP #divergED

MWalshEd1 Aug 9 @ 8:09 PM EDT

@memayer21 RTI or MTSS program should organically be able to support a student. All students screened ,supports are personalized. #divergED

@WeberEducation What was your look for? How did u share the data from the walk? #divergED

PaulaMaeker Aug 9 @ 8:12 PM EDT

@memayer21 Yes! To loosely quote @mikemattos65 the best intervention is best INITIAL instruction. #divergED

MrDataGuy Aug 9 @ 8:12 PM EDT

This is sometimes lost. Cannot agree more. Get the tier 1 in shape makes everything work better. #divergED https://t.co/Sb9nPoHQjU

TTMobile_us Aug 9 @ 8:14 PM EDT

#divergED is now trending in USA, ranking 37

MrDelliSanti Aug 9 @ 8:14 PM EDT

@lmstump Who all is on team? Like contents? Admin & Counselors? #divergED

WeberEducation - Moderator Aug 9 @ 8:16 PM EDT

brewerhm Aug 9 @ 8:16 PM EDT

Dont over complicated intervention with colorful charts & names on walls -you will lose focus of your target, quality instruction #divergED

MrDataGuy Aug 9 @ 8:16 PM EDT

We need to assess MORE - more formative use, less standardized. MORE feedback, less data reports. #divergED https://t.co/aLzWST6SaM

@MrDataGuy We have to make sure our data provide us with information. To often we are "data rich, but information poor"

PaulaMaeker Aug 9 @ 8:17 PM EDT

AFVirgilio Aug 9 @ 8:17 PM EDT

@MelroseCurricul yes, an open dialogue. Often includes parents as well. #divergED

TeachDB17 Aug 9 @ 8:17 PM EDT

tsschmidty Aug 9 @ 8:17 PM EDT
