Professional Learning Communities (PLC) and Response to Intervention (RTI) can provide strong learner supports, if used effectively within a school.  \nAn educator’s main goal is to ensure that all students learn required curriculum outcomes. However, no educator can provide all necessary supports for all learners. Using Professional Learning Communities (PLC) and Response to Intervention (RTI), staff work collaboratively to provide core instruction, scaffold at-risk learners, and build a community culture of learning. Collaboration requires a positive culture, collective purpose, open-minded staff, time, and appropriate professional development (PD) with administrative supports. Only through collaboration can staff guide all learners on their journey to reach their educational potential.  \nProfessional Learning Communities  \nPLCs are groups of educators working together with a collective purpose of high student achievement. PLCs are one response to the increasing demands to meet student needs despite strained resources and dissatisfaction with traditional methods of teaching and assessing. Educators have been forced to find more efficient methods to identify and respond to learner needs collectively (McIntosh et al. , 2011) . In response to systemic changes, educators have created PLCs to develop a shared vision for each school community, to act as a rudder to steer staff through unfamiliar and rough waters (McLaughlin & Talbert, 2007) .  \nTeachers can not reach each student alone. Only a team effort will be successful (Vatakis, 2016) . Each PLC must establish its guiding principles and core outcomes for instruction, with the addition of RTI to ensure that all students in their care meet the educational expectations of the school. With a collective purpose, or a sense of ownership, within a school students will reach their potential by using RTI strategies (Buffum, Mattos, & Weber, 2012) .  \nResponse to Intervention  \nRTI is not a set system or special education program for schools to follow, but researchbased interventions within tiers of instruction. It is a continuum of supports that begins with core instruction for all learners. Students who experience challenges with core instruction are offered secondary supplemental evidence-based interventions. Struggling individuals requiring additional, more intensive, interventions are often identified as having a learning disability, but all students benefit from RTI strategies (Martinez & Young, 2011; Vatakis, 2016; Williams & Hierck, 2015) .  \nRTI originally focused on reading intervention with students identified for special education, but has evolved into a belief that all students, with interventions, will achieve outcomes in all subject areas. RTI begins with staff identification of clear core instructional goals. For example, staff will identify essential outcomes, which they believe all students must achieve to meet grade level expectations or to earn a specific credit. A PLC group may function initially to carefully  \ndeliberate essential outcome identification. This may be initially time consuming, but will focus later efforts. Periodic assessment of skills, followed by a focused response of re-teaching or scaffolding, minimizes the possibility that a student would be left behind or have gaps in knowledge (National Center on Response to Intervention, 2010; Stuart, Rinaldi , & HigginsAverill, 2011) . Students who are struggling to learn the essential outcomes would receive oneon-one or small-group instructi","cbCaiqKvM5de5gQD","https://ap.wps.com/l/cbCaiqKvM5de5gQD","pdf",310135,"English","# Abstract\n## Professional Learning Communities\n## Response to Intervention\n## Building a Positive School Culture","[{\"question\":\"What factors determine whether staff can positively affect student learning?\",\"answer\":\"The discussion emphasizes staff attitudes toward change, a positive school culture, access to appropriate professional development, and administration that provides protected time and creative supports.\"},{\"question\":\"How do Professional Learning Communities (PLC) support student achievement?\",\"answer\":\"PLCs are educator groups with a collective purpose of high student achievement, created to respond to increased demands and to coordinate a shared vision and instructional direction.\"},{\"question\":\"What does Response to Intervention (RTI) involve and how does it support struggling students?\",\"answer\":\"RTI is a continuum of evidence-based interventions across instructional tiers, starting with core instruction for all learners and adding supplemental, then more intensive, supports for students who struggle.\"}]","Staff Collaboration for Student Success - Implementation Challenges of Professional Learning Communities and Response to Intervention | PDF",1792082195,15]
