RTI Roundtable - Issue #18

The Role of FBA in RTI²-B

By Cindy Widner

This issue of NASET’s RTI Roundtable was written by Cindy Winer and will focus on the role of FBA in RTI²-B. With the upcoming implementation of RTI²-B, it is imperative that educators understand the role of a functional behavior assessment in the process. One of the most controversial issues that arises within the RTI process is the responsibility of the implementation of components. The conflict stems from a lack of understanding, training, and direction in the FBA process. This article is intended to increase the understanding of who is responsible for conducting a FBA and how it can be done both as a formal and informal assessment.
