Multi-Tiered System of Supports (MTSS) Selection of Evidence-Based Practices

Video in the Four-Part KyMTSS Video Collection

The use of evidence-based practices is crucial for ensuring equitable access and opportunity for each and every student. The MTSS Selection of Evidence-Based Practices video provides information regarding the vital importance of using evidence-based practices within an MTSS Framework. The video highlights credible sources for locating evidence-based practices within the context of the local school community.

The accompanying facilitator and participant guides offer questions for consideration and discussion related to the use of evidence-based practices in order to maximize student success.

All materials can be found on the MTSS Video Collection webpage.

The KDE Evidence-based Practices webpage offers tools and resources to make it easier for schools to identify and implement evidence-based practices with fidelity.
