Progress measures have become a central component of the Response to Intervention (RTI) approach. Contemporary assessment has shifted focus from describing differences between students to measuring their progress toward important educational outcomes.
Curriculum-Based Measurement (CBM) procedures are used to monitor basic skills growth, to identify students at risk of learning difficulty, to evaluate efforts to prevent and remediate low achievement, and to aid in making instructional decisions to accelerate learning.
Stanley Deno, Ph.D., best known for his research leading to the development of CBM progress monitoring procedures and their use in the RTI model, will answer your questions on CBM at the first RTI Action Network Talk on April 23 at 1-2 p.m. EDT. Join this RTI Talk online.
