Response to Intervention Strategies with Study Island

The Study Island Kentucky Core Content Standards Mastery program offers a variety of real-time reports. Each comprehensive report offered can be customized to your specific needs. Study Island can generate reports by student, subject, class, grade and school. Study Island’s detailed diagnostic reports can provide valuable longitudinal data to track students from year to year and school to school.


Tier I: Screening & Group Interventions

Study Island collects progress monitoring data reflected in real-time reports to quickly display achievement areas where students are succeeding or falling behind. Study Island’s “Comparison Report” shows the targeted student’s progressive performance against their school grade level, and the other Study Island students in Kentucky at the same grade level.

Tier II: Targeted Interventions

Study Island teachers can easily match instructional content to any student’s most adaptive learning mode. Students can accomplish work in electronic multiple choice or one of 11 game formats. Kentucky teachers use Study Island in small group instruction online or utilize the printable worksheet, both designed to offer differentiated instruction for struggling students, while teachers provide regular, corrective feedback. Kinesthetic students can interactively become proficient and master standards using Study Island on Smartboards. The teacher projects Study Island on the smartboard for all to view and allows students to take turns coming up to the board and physically touching the answer choices.

Tier III – Monitor Progress More Frequently

Study Island reporting tools allow teachers to narrow the focus on specific skill deficiencies. The Study Island “Individual Student Report” displays real-time data reflecting a student’s strengths and weaknesses. Teachers can easily pre-set report updates for recurring e-mail delivery to themselves, their administrators, or even a student’s parents in order to continually track student progress towards AYP goals.

Study Island’s “Suggested Topics” option categorizes a student’s work into priority tiers according to their weaknesses and strengths and allows teachers to differentiate instruction by efficiently developing a more targeted and individualized interventional instructional path.

Tier III – Progress Monitor More Frequently (Continued)

Study Island helps with remediation 3 ways. The automatic, self-leveling building block question process allows students to gain proficiency at lower levels and work their way back up to grade level. Teachers can also adjust passing parameters or force students into alternative grade-level work without anyone being able to detect the changes.
