The 2011 Budget aims to boost business and jobs growth through measures like reducing the corporation tax rate, extending business rate relief, and doubling Entrepreneurs' Relief. It also aims to help families with the rising cost of living by cutting fuel duty and raising the personal income tax allowance. Other measures include changes to inheritance tax, Gift Aid, and introducing passenger duty on private jets. Economic growth forecasts were lowered but borrowing is expected to fall. The Office for Budget Responsibility will become a permanent body advising on budgets.
- The Chancellor announced plans to tackle the UK's record budget deficit while sustaining the economy, with the goal of balancing the structural deficit by 2015, a year earlier than planned.
- To meet fiscal targets, VAT will rise to 20% in January 2011 and capital gains tax will rise to 28% for higher rate taxpayers.
- Corporation tax will be cut gradually to 24% by 2014 to encourage business investment.
- Welfare savings of £11 billion by 2014/15 will be achieved through cuts to tax credits and limits on housing benefits.
- The personal income tax allowance will rise to £7,475 in 2011 to protect lower earners.

Study: The Future of VR, AR and Self-Driving CarsLinkedIn
We asked LinkedIn members worldwide about their levels of interest in the latest wave of technology: whether they’re using wearables, and whether they intend to buy self-driving cars and VR headsets as they become available. We asked them too about their attitudes to technology and to the growing role of Artificial Intelligence (AI) in the devices that they use. The answers were fascinating – and in many cases, surprising.
This SlideShare explores the full results of this study, including detailed market-by-market breakdowns of intention levels for each technology – and how attitudes change with age, location and seniority level. If you’re marketing a tech brand – or planning to use VR and wearables to reach a professional audience – then these are insights you won’t want to miss.
Artificial intelligence (AI) is everywhere, promising self-driving cars, medical breakthroughs, and new ways of working. But how do you separate hype from reality? How can your company apply AI to solve real business problems?
Here’s what AI learnings your business should keep in mind for 2017.

This document provides an overview of Response to Intervention (RTI) and Illinois' RTI plan. It defines RTI as a general education initiative that uses data to provide targeted instruction to students based on their needs. The key components of RTI are a three-tier model of intervention, a problem-solving model for decision making, and an integrated data system. Illinois requires all districts to have an RTI plan and provides guidelines for funding and evaluating the process. The goals of RTI include identifying struggling students early and improving student outcomes through collaborative, data-driven decision making.
The document outlines best practices for involving parents in the RTI (Response to Intervention) process. It recommends that schools (1) provide parents with written information explaining the RTI program and screening process, (2) invite parents to RTI student team meetings to discuss their child's progress and interventions, and (3) notify parents when their child is receiving Tier 2 or Tier 3 interventions or spending more time in intensive instruction. The goal is to empower parents by keeping them informed about their child's performance and the extra help being provided so they can better support learning at home.
RtI is a multi-tiered framework used in Thompson School District to provide academic and behavioral support to all students. It uses high quality instruction and increasingly intensive interventions matched to student needs. Students move between the three tiers - classroom, supplemental, and explicit instruction - based on their response to interventions as measured by progress monitoring. The problem-solving process and data-driven assessments are essential to the RtI model. Parent and community engagement is also important for student success.
The document discusses Response to Intervention (RtI) implementation in the Thompson School District. It describes RtI as a multi-tiered framework to provide academic and behavioral support to all students. The three tiers include high-quality core instruction, supplemental instruction, and more explicit targeted instruction. It also outlines the problem-solving process, use of data-driven assessments, importance of family and community engagement, and answers frequently asked questions about RtI.
The document provides an overview of Response to Intervention (RTI), which is a multistep process used by schools to provide early support for struggling students and improve identification of students who need special education services. It describes the typical three-tier RTI model where students receive increasingly intensive interventions based on their response to instruction. Tier 1 involves universal screening of all students and group interventions. Tier 2 provides more targeted small group interventions. Tier 3 involves the most intensive individualized interventions and possible evaluation for special education. The goal of RTI is to prevent academic failure and ensure all students succeed.

This document provides examples of strategies that districts have used to foster online and connected professional learning as part of daily activities. These strategies include developing a connected coach program, setting simple collaboration goals, designating regular time for educator collaboration both online and in person, and using online document sharing tools to facilitate collaboration. Providing dedicated time, such as a weekly late start for meetings, helps educators prioritize connected learning. Starting small, such as designating 15 minutes per week for Twitter, can help newcomers integrate connected learning. Overall, districts that have embedded connected learning emphasize the importance of leadership support and dedicating regular time for educators to learn and collaborate online.
Response to Instruction (RTI) is a multi-tiered framework that uses core instruction, assessment, and intervention to increase student achievement and reduce behavior problems. It involves all school staff, parents, and sometimes outside providers working collaboratively to identify student needs and provide targeted academic and behavioral interventions. Student progress is monitored through data to evaluate the effectiveness of interventions and make decisions about future instruction. The goal is to provide early and well-matched support to struggling students in order to prevent academic and behavioral issues.
The document proposes developing a mobile application to improve communication between a school and parents/guardians. It would allow parents to access classroom blogs, school news, and contact lists. Research suggests parental involvement is important for student achievement and motivation. The intervention plan involves gathering input from teachers, parents, and students on important app features. An 8-week timeline is outlined that includes proposal, surveying stakeholders, compiling findings, and meeting with app development companies. Ethical considerations focus on maintaining parental involvement to support students' education. Data collection will utilize surveys and checklists to determine how to increase parental involvement through the app.
This document discusses challenges districts face in implementing effective Response to Intervention (RtI) initiatives, with a focus on data use issues. It outlines key elements of successful district RtI rollouts, including strong leadership, school-based RtI teams, research-based interventions, and data management systems. Effective data collection and use is essential for screening, progress monitoring, and making instructional decisions within a multi-tiered system of support.
This portfolio summarizes best practices in special education assessment and intervention. It discusses two key issues: Response to Intervention (RTI) and avoiding disproportionality in special education assessment. RTI uses multi-tiered interventions and assessments to identify student needs early. This avoids misplacing students in special education without adequate general education supports. The portfolio is intended to provide an exemplar for schools to reference in improving their special education practices and assessments. It suggests training practitioners in special education and general education to validate assessment data and avoid erroneous special education placements.
This document discusses Response to Intervention (RTI) and provides guidance on its implementation. The goals of RTI are to review principles, examine steps for planning and strengthening RTI programs, and look at resources for interventions, data collection, and using technology to graph and analyze data. RTI involves providing research-based instruction and interventions matched to student needs, monitoring progress frequently to make decisions about changes, and applying student response data to educational decisions. A multi-tiered model is presented involving school-wide, targeted small group, and intensive individual interventions.
Response to Intervention (RTI) is a multi-tiered system of support for providing high-quality instruction and interventions matched to student needs in order to improve learning for all students. It involves three tiers of intervention with increasing intensities. Tier 1 involves quality classroom instruction for all students with progress monitoring. Tier 2 provides supplemental instruction for students not progressing adequately in Tier 1 in small groups. Tier 3 includes the most intensive, individualized interventions for students not responding to Tier 2. The goal of RTI is to prevent academic problems by closing skill gaps early through interventions to determine the need for special education services.
The document discusses visions for the future of learning analytics based on a presentation given by Rebecca Ferguson. It outlines several potential futures for learning analytics, including learners being monitored by their learning environments, learners' personal data being tracked, and learners controlling their own data. It also discusses various challenges regarding ethics, regulation, validity, and affect that will need to be addressed for learning analytics to achieve its potential while avoiding negative consequences. The overall message is that learning analytics show promise to improve education if developed and applied carefully and ethically with student well-being and consent as top priorities.
Response to Intervention (RTI) is a multi-tiered system of support for providing high-quality instruction and interventions matched to student needs in order to improve learning for all students. It involves three tiers of intervention with increasing levels of intensity, with 80% of students receiving core instruction at Tier 1, 15% receiving supplemental interventions at Tier 2, and 5% receiving intensive interventions at Tier 3. The goals of RTI include preventing academic problems by addressing skill gaps early and determining eligibility for special education. Data on student progress is collected throughout the tiers to make decisions about instruction and intervention.

7. NOT true. Parents or educators may request an initial evaluation to determine if a student has a disability. RTI does not weaken that right. Requests can be made at any point within the RTI process. See: “Identification of Specific Learning Disabilities” at http://idea.ed.gov/explore/view for more information. MYTH #3 You cannot refer a student for special education evaluation if your school or district has an RTI process.
8. FALSE. Tier 3 is the most intensive level of intervention within general education. It is not special education. If a student still does not make progress within this level, he/she may then be evaluated for special education. See: http://www.rtinetwork.org/essential/tieredinstruction for more information. MYTH #4 “Tier 3” is another name for special education.
9. FALSE. Adequate time should be given to determine if the interventions are working. Guidelines given by the RTI ACTION NETWORK: Tier 1: Maximum of eight weeks Tier 2: No longer than one grading period Tier 3: There is no guideline for this tier. See: National Research Center on Learning Disabilities at: http://www.nrcld.org for more information MYTH #5 RTI interventions should be tried for no more than six to eight weeks.
10. Special education teachers need to be included in the planning, implementation, and monitoring of interventions within RTI. They should not be considered an outside agency to receive students that did not make sufficient progress within the RTI process. MYTH #6 RTI reduces the need for special ed teachers.
