  • Assisting Students Struggling with Mathematics: Response to Intervention (Rti) for Elementary and Middle Schools
    IES PRACTICE GUIDE WHAT WORKS CLEARINGHOUSE AssistingAssisting StudentsStudents StrugglingStruggling withwith Mathematics:Mathematics: ResponseResponse toto InterventionIntervention (RtI)(RtI) forfor ElementaryElementary andand MiddleMiddle SchoolsSchools NCEE 2009-4060 U.S. DEPARTMENT OF EDUCATION The Institute of Education Sciences (IES) publishes practice guides in education to bring the best available evidence and expertise to bear on the types of systemic challenges that cannot currently be addressed by single interventions or programs. Authors of practice guides seldom conduct the types of systematic literature searches that are the backbone of a meta-analysis, although they take advantage of such work when it is already published. Instead, authors use their expertise to identify the most important research with respect to their recommendations, augmented by a search of recent publications to ensure that research citations are up-to-date. Unique to IES-sponsored practice guides is that they are subjected to rigorous exter- nal peer review through the same office that is responsible for independent review of other IES publications. A critical task for peer reviewers of a practice guide is to determine whether the evidence cited in support of particular recommendations is up-to-date and that studies of similar or better quality that point in a different di- rection have not been ignored. Because practice guides depend on the expertise of their authors and their group decisionmaking, the content of a practice guide is not and should not be viewed as a set of recommendations that in every case depends on and flows inevitably from scientific research. The goal of this practice guide is to formulate specific and coherent evidence-based recommendations for use by educators addressing the challenge of reducing the number of children who struggle with mathematics by using “response to interven- tion” (RtI) as a means of both identifying students who need more help and provid- ing these students with high-quality interventions.

If needed: This is a survey about community issues in Thousand Oaks, I’m NOT trying to sell anything and I won’t ask for a donation. If needed: The survey should take about 12 minutes to complete.

    98th REGULAR SESSION OEA/Ser. Q April 5 to 9, 2021 CJI/doc. 627/21 Virtual session February 17, 2020 Original: Portuguese PARTICULAR CUSTOMARY INTERNATIONAL LAW IN THE CONTEXT OF THE AMERICAS: SECOND REPORT (Presented by Dr. George Rodrigo Bandeira Galindo In the 95th regular session, held in Rio de Janeiro on July 31, 2019, the Inter-American Juridical Committee included in its work agenda the matter of Particular Customary International Law in the context of the Americas. On this occasion, I had the honor of being chosen as the rapporteur on this matter. In turn, in the 96th regular session, held in Rio de Janeiro from March 2 to 6, 2020, I presented my first report. On this occasion, I sought to begin with an approach to the subject from the perspective of international jurisprudence. A significant part of the doctrine on particular international law takes as its primary point of reference a series of cases decided by the International Court of Justice (hereinafter ICJ, or the Court) over the course of more than 50 years bearing –more or less directly– on the subject. This approach, which could be classified as overwhelmingly inductive, based on cases decided by the ICJ, offers clear advantages, although it is not without its drawbacks. Its greatest advantage lies in linking the study of particular customary international law with relevant judicial practice –thus avoiding arguments of a theoretical nature with little practical application. On the other hand, the great risk of such an approach is in presupposing a certain coherence between the decisions of the ICJ over a long period of time and thereby drawing abstract conclusions from the characteristics of concrete cases.
