Blumberg Center for
Interdisciplinary Studies in Special Education
collaborative
problem solving Project
General Description
The Blumberg Center's
Collaborative Problem Solving Project (CPSP) is funded by the Indiana
Department of Education, Center for Exceptional Learners. The CPSP
supports schools to develop and implement systems of tiered prevention
and intervention that actively engage school personnel and families in
the task of creating academic and behavioral success for all students.
Tiered prevention and intervention systems
- provide
high-quality instruction and intervention matched to student need,
- monitor
progress frequently to inform instruction and intervention, and
- use student
data to inform important educational decisions.
Assessment,
instruction and intervention, and problem-solving are core components of
tiered prevention and intervention models and are also integrally
related to larger school improvement efforts.
The CPSP conducts research and provides professional development
opportunities that promote research-based and culturally responsive
practices in the areas of assessment, instruction and intervention, and
problem solving. A variety of written resources are available or under
development to support schools interested in utilizing tiered prevention
and intervention systems or a Response to Intervention (RtI) approach.
The CPSP services are not all inclusive to support every school's needs
for implementation of tiered systems, but it is the CPSP's intention to
collaborate with other professionals and technical assistance centers to
fill in the gaps and expand services over time.
