Adaptive Acceleration and Remediation
As students work through the activity sequences for the skills in Bands C–M, their
performance is continually assessed by the system. As described earlier, students
complete Model and Guide activities for each skill before entering into the Monitor
phase of the sequence. If students demonstrate mastery (100% correct) in three
consecutive Monitor activities for a skill, the system accelerates past remaining Monitor
activities when students encounter them in each lesson. (Note that this does not apply
to the final Monitor activity that prepares students for the Mastery Check activities.)
This process allows students to accelerate their progress toward assessment
opportunities and toward on-grade-level performance.
Conversely, if students average below 80% in two consecutive Monitor activities for a
skill, the system presents them with an intensive remediation lesson just for that skill.
Students work through consecutive activities that reteach the skill and provide
supported practice. After completing this remediation lesson, students return to the
regular sequence of lessons. If they continue to struggle with that skill,
FLEXWorks
notifies the teacher that additional intervention is required. The teacher is prompted to
administer a one-on-one Individualized Instruction lesson to provide further
remediation for the skill. The content for the Individualized Instruction lessons is made
available both within
FLEXWorks
and in
Differentiated Instruction Resources
