As adoption of the RTI model grows, professionals such as educational diagnosticians, school psychologists, general and special education teachers, and school administrators are eager to find resources that describe the theory behind it and provide useful guidelines for its effective implementation. Packaged in the user-friendly Essentials series format, and authored by two RTI experts, Essentials of Response to Intervention provides just that resource. This book offers a concise overview of the features of RTI, instruction for its implementation, and post-implementation guidelines for assessing whether a program has been effective.
Like all the volumes in the Essentials of Psychological Assessment series, this book is designed to help busy mental health practitioners, and those in training, quickly acquire the psychoeducational assessment knowledge and skills they need. Each concise chapter features numerous callout boxes highlighting key concepts, bulleted points, and extensive illustrative material, as well as test questions that help you to gauge and reinforce your grasp of the information covered.
Complete with a Foreword by Jim Ysseldyke, Essentials of Response to Intervention offers rich and up-to-date information on obtaining meaningful data for decision making, evaluation of the research base for RTI, and clinical applications of RTI.

"This jewel of a book truly lives up to its title providing the
essential information needed for school-based practitioners about
how to implement Response To Intervention (RTI) using
research-based practices. While there are many books on RTI, this
one by VanDerHeyden and Burns provides all of the essential
information to actually implement RTI at the district, school,
class, and student level."

"VanderHeyden and Burns deftly explore the history of RtI and
then provide a comprehensive guide to its implementation.
Complexities and challenges are addressed head-on with concrete
solutions and recommendations for educators. Readers will come away
with a robust understanding of RtI, as well as encouragement to put
it into practice so that all students can benefit."
--James H Wendorf, Executive Director, National Center
for Learning Disabilities
"A practical guide for education professionals and others
interested in RTI models, Essentials of Response to
Intervention is a thorough review of the issues involved in
these approaches to assessment and service delivery in schools. The
book contains many useful appendices for assessment and for
monitoring of intervention integrity that can be used for RTI
implementation. The authors do a marvelous job of tying practical
implementation issues to the available research base supporting RTI
models, and also clearly highlight areas of difficulty with
implementation and limitations of RTI approaches to the
identification of children for special education services."
--Jack M. Fletcher, Ph.D., Department of Psychology,
University of Houston Texas Medical Center Annex
"This is an incredibly rich resource. Burns and VanDerHeyden
have managed to put into one small volume, the research, practice,
successes, and challenges of implemented RTI models. They offer
practical and clear examples, support their presentation with a
rich understanding of the literature, and offer a resource that
will be beneficial long into the future. The volume offers all
educators associated with RTI implementation a "one-stop shop" of
information and practical knowledge on RTI implementation. In
addition, the volume will become required reading for pre-service
training of all educational personnel. Thank you, Matt and Amanda
for this incredible addition to an already too crowded field of
resources on RTI."
