This special issue of the journal is dedicated to the proceedings of The Wing Institute 2007 Summit on Response to Intervention, RtI. The theme of the Summit was: Response to Intervention (RtI): An Evidence-Based Education Review.

The Summit provided an overview on the latest research and developments in RtI, examined RtI in the context of the Evidence-Based Education Roadmap, identified critical variables for the successful implementation of RtI, and generated action plans with participant’s regarding their use of RtI in “real-life” settings.
The special issue focus is on the following critical features of the RtI process:
