For example, most schools administer vision screening tests to all elementary children. But who need additional academic and behavioral support to succeed in a general education environment . The classroom teacher describes for the team the academic and/or behavior problems the student has been experiencing, The group brainstorms not only on the possible etiology of the problem, but more importantly, on possible solutions to it .
