I think the word you're looking for is "hypothesis".
For example, a hypothesis could be "dogs drink more often when owners are present".
And then this can be proven (or dis-proven) by an observation (or in this case rather: measurement).
Response to intervention (RTI) wants to identify students with difficulties
, the student learning monitoring and offer interventions for the development of academic skills.
The service in an individual (can also be done with doubles or threes) and is aimed at students who have significant learning difficulties and / or disorders. Thus, they are those who did not respond adequately to Preventive or Supplementary Interventions. Experienced professionals perform high-quality intervention at a time other than regular education, at school or in specialized clinics. In many cases, the therapeutic plan is built with the help of a multidisciplinary team to encompass biopsychosocial causes and consequences. As in layers 1 and 2, monitoring student response to intervention serves to modify intervention strategies and intensity.
