Dr. Alan Coulter’s Webinars
Got Good MTSS Culture? School Climate, Infrastructure, and Mind Frames
Implementing MTSS typically focuses on the whats and hows of assessment, decision-making, interventions, tiers, etc. However, without leaders and teams who build and sustain a positive school culture and climate and install mind frames for student success, MTSS implementation will not produce the desired outcomes. It fails without effective organizational culture. This webinar identifies how school leaders and teams can build and sustain an infrastructure and climate to support MTSS, including 10 mind frames linked to positive student outcomes. Participants will be able to evaluate their current MTSS implementation culture and climate and identify potential strategies for improvement in mind frames.

Blame Free Implementation Fidelity: Fixing the Weak Link in MTSS
The weak link in MTSS implementation is intervention implementation fidelity. When low fidelity is observed, the typical (but erroneous) cause is labeled teacher resistance. That is, teachers are “unwilling” to deliver the intervention like someone else would like. This perspective begins a contentious consultation relationship, or worse, the ability to objectively evaluate what’s going on is impaired. This webinar flips the mindset about fidelity with three specific tools to enhance the relationships between the person(s) delivering the intervention and the persons responsible for ensuring implementation integrity to maximize student success. Webinar participants access a protocol and evidence-based steps to use in their school setting.
