The Nebraska Multi-tiered System of Support (NeMTSS) team has developed a four-part webinar series to enhance the use of evidence-based strategies in classrooms across the state. Evidence-Based Strategies Series: Guiding the Targeted Improvement Plan Process includes 10 pre-recorded webinar videos. The fourth part of the series, Data-Based Decision-Making, is now available.

Tips for watching the videos
- To get the most out of the webinar, it is best to watch it in groups. Leadership teams and other district- and school-level teams should plan to spend about 45 minutes watching, discussing and reflecting on the content of the video.
- It is recommended that teams watch the Evidence-Based Strategies webinars in order (Part 1-4). While there are several webinars contained within the Part 1: Crash Course and Part 3: Classroom Implementation, districts/schools do not need to watch all of them to benefit from the series.
Why should districts/schools watch?
By creating this series and sharing it with Nebraska educators, the NeMTSS team aims to support schools in strengthening their Tier 1 Core practices to positively impact learning for students with disabilities by improving educational opportunities for all students.
What’s next?
- Continue to strengthen Tier 1 Core instruction to provide more inclusive and equitable opportunities for all students.
- Meet regularly as a team to discuss TIP implementation efforts.
- Continue to use data to adjust implementation plans as needed.
- Provide high-quality and ongoing professional learning opportunities around your selected TIP strategy to all staff.
- Attend virtual TIP trainings from the Office of Special Education.
- Integrate TIP efforts into overall district continuous improvement.
- Access ESU support and regional support leads as needed.
