Progress monitoring is a scientifically based practice used to access students' academic performance, continuously measure student performance growth, and provide objective data to evaluate the effectiveness of instruction and interventions.
The key components of progress monitoring are---Brief assessments conducted frequently---Assessments occur throughout the intervention---Results are evaluated to determine whether student response to intervention is adequate or not---Most frequently, curriculum based measurement (CBM) is used to monitor progress---Results are charted and analyzed to determine student progress regularly by the School Intervention Team---Rules are preset to determine when a student is not adequately responding to an intervention.
