Response to Intervention (RtI) is a process that involves progress monitoring and ongoing evaluation of children's responsiveness to instruction and/or evidence-based interventions as a guide for instructional and eligibility decisions. The greatest benefits of RtI come from its utility as a framework for guiding service delivery for those with unmet needs. The 2004 reauthorization of the Individuals with Disabilities Education Act provides a legal basis for RtI, indicating that schools can “use a process which determines if a child responds to a scientific, research-based intervention” as a mechanism for identifying (and subsequently serving) those with specific learning disabilities.
