1. At risk students: Students who are struggling and are in a Tier I and/or II intervention setting will benefit directly because there will be a careful analysis of the instruction they are receiving and there will be frequent documentation to monitor their progress.
2. Teachers: The study will help highlight areas of instruction that are strong for example, lesson delivery and will also illustrate areas of improvement like objective development. I also hope that through this study, we can help scaffold objectives and goals better so that we maximize the student’s potential to narrow their achievement gap for good.
3. Paraprofessionals: Since paraprofessionals are responsible for lesson delivery during the intervention, they will benefit by learning the areas of strength and areas of improvement mentioned above. However, because paraprofessionals lack the level of training of certified teachers, learning the why behind the intervention’s goals (that are set by the classroom teacher not the paraprofessional) and the how will be key in helping our paraprofessionals better their delivery of the intervention they are providing. I hope that my action research helps shed light in to effective goal setting and lesson delivery.
4. The Problem Solving Team: This project could help us finally focus on what we have been wanting to do for quite some time now… analyze the effectiveness of our RTI process at our Tier I and II levels. By doing so, we can gain insight that will potentially lead to better decision-making by our team.
5. Principal: Our principal is feeling much pressure on her right now since she is new to this role. This action research can help her by analyzing the effectiveness of the decisions of her PST and the instruction given at Tier I and II interventions. By doing so, there is a great potential for increasing student achievement which will be reflected in our school’s data.
