Center for response to intervention in early childhood (CRTIEC)


This is a current project.


This project aims to reduce the number of children with reading problems by increasing the number of children entering school with knowledge and skill in early literacy and language. While much is known about early literacy and language and how to promote their development, for too many children, identification of literacy and language delays is coming too late—resulting in life-long reading problems.

This project will carry out research on interventions for children not making progress in the general literacy and language curriculum in preschool; carry out research on progress monitoring measures linked to literacy and language; disseminate findings to practitioners, policymakers and researchers; and provide national leadership on implementation of RtI for young children in literacy and language.
