RMC Research offers materials and resources on (a) effective instruction within a Response to Intervention framework and (b) implementation of the RTI framework at the state, district, and local levels.
Additionally, an RTI Classification Tool and Resource Locator (RTI CTRL) is available to conduct in-depth searches for resources pertaining to specific RTI topic areas and stages of RTI implementation at the school, district and state levels. This tool can be accessed by going to www.rtictrl.org. A self-assessment tool for use by states to determine their level of RTI implementation and a subsequent listing of recommended resources is also available at this site.
