Recruitment

Participation allows for job-embedded professional development aligned with the State Systemic Improvement Plan Indicator 17 and the IEP in CT-SEDs.  DBI allows for the systematic implementation of intensive intervention and intentional alignment of high impact educational practices. 

 

During CONNi4 PD, school teams:

    • examine data using CONNi4’s structured protocol designed in collaboration with schools across CT.
    • work with UConn coaches to use the protocol to improve instruction for students with reading difficulty.
    • meet regularly as a team to examine data using CONNi4’s graphing system and plan instructional adaptations to accelerate progress .
    • plan to maintain, sustain, and scale up this system to benefit students who need intensive intervention and the staff who serve them.

 

CONNi4 aligns with team-based problem solving. It allows for alignment of all tiers of instruction to meet students’ individualized needs. It uses the progress monitoring part of CT-SEDS—making use of new system easier for special education teachers.
