  3. Ohio Improvement Process J. Burke 6/2010

  4. Ohio Improvement Process J. Burke 6/2010

  5. Ohio Improvement Process District Goals District /School Strategies and Actions Plan Implementation Monitoring Adult Actions and Student Results J. Burke 6/2010

  6. Monitoring Implementation • Are we (the adults) implementing the plan and its defined strategies and actions with integrity? Are we doing what we said we would? J. Burke 6/2010

  7. Monitoring Impact • Is the plan and its implementation making a difference in student achievement? Is it making a difference for students ? J. Burke 6/2010

  8. Monitoring Student Impact J. Burke 6/2010

  9. Procedures for Monitoring Student Performance • Define learning priorities • Select a measurement method and frequency • Collect baseline student data • Define a progress indicator • Implement actions • Collect data regularly and visually display • Identify necessary mid-course corrections J. Burke 6/2010

  10. Selecting Priorities • Lifelong Learning: Which skills/knowledge are needed throughout life • Level : Which indicators would make our students most likely to be successful at the next grade level and beyond. • Leverage: what skills/knowledge are used in multiple content areas THEN: Frequency on State Assessments

  11. Formative Quarterly Assessment • Same priority indicators assessed each quarter to measure growth • Five (5) assessments • Diagnostic (1st two weeks of school) • Quarterly (end of each quarter) • Data analyzed at the building and classroom level J. Burke 6/2010

  12. Assessment Impact J. Burke 6/2010

  13. Define a Progress Indicator • Benchmark: Students will score 80% or higher on quarterly assessments. J. Burke 6/2010

  14. Display Data, Identify Effective Practices, Adjust Teaching J. Burke 6/2010

  15. Managing Data

  16. Data Management System • Our criteria • Provide timely feedback to teachers and students. • Generate a variety of reports (teacher, class, comparison, school, district, cumulative, etc. • Identify strengths and weaknesses by GLI. • Offer teachers critical informationto adjust instruction in the classroom as needed. • Be cost effective

  17. Importance of Collaboration

  18. Finding CollaborativeTime • Teacher Release Days • purposeful/meaningful/structured collaboration • Subs for teachers • Student Release Days • One per month/two hours • Rearranged to align with quarterly assessments • Summer Work

  19. Data Teams:Monitoring Student Achievement J. Burke 6/2010 Examine student work Gather and analyze data Prioritize needs Identify effective teaching strategies Monitor, share & post results Evaluate effectiveness

  20. Monitoring Adult Implementation J. Burke 6/2010

  21. Why Monitoring is Important… J. Burke 6/2010 “Plans without monitoring are little better than wishes upon stars.” ---Doug Reeves

  22. Why Monitoring Implementation can be Difficult… J. Burke 6/2010 Implementation is the most complex part of the process because it often requires change in adult practices that are part of the unique culture of the building and district.

  23. Planning for Adult Implementation Monitoring • What to Monitor • What to Gather • When to Gather and Submit Data • How to Gather • Who will Gather • How to Record Data • How to Manage Monitoring Data • How to Communicate Monitoring Expectations and Results J. Burke 6/2010

  24. Organizing for Monitoring J. Burke 6/2010

  25. Monitoring Adult Implementation • Whenever monitoring occurs, those monitoring will be “Looking For” specific adult and student behaviors. • These behaviors must be explicit and transparent to everyone. • The focus is on what can be seen. J. Burke 6/2010

  26. Developing “Look Fors” J. Burke 6/2010 This is what SORRY looks like

  27. Look For---Focus on Curriculum • Identify the learning targets • Determine whether the learning objective is evident to students • Determine whether the learning objective is on target for grade-level indicators J. Burke 6/2010

  28. Look For---Focus on Instruction • Identify the instructional practices • Identify the student grouping format • Identify research-based instructional strategies J. Burke 6/2010

  29. Look For--Focus on the Learner • Identify student actions • Identify the instructional materials • Determine the level(s) of student work • Determine the level of student engagement J. Burke 6/2010

  31. High-Yield Instructional Strategies J. Burke 6/2010

  32. Measuring Implementation and Impact J. Burke 6/2010 “If you can’t measure it, you can’t manage it.” ---John Johnson, Author

  33. Walkthroughs and Checklists J. Burke 6/2010

  34. Walkthroughs and Checklists J. Burke 6/2010

  35. That which gets Monitoredgets Done! J. Burke 6/2010

  36. Processes to Consider for Monitoring Adult Implementation • Walkthroughs • Developing Observation Checklists • Learning Rounds • Supervisor Observation and Teacher-Self-Report • Document Reviews • Academic Reviews or Audits J. Burke 6/2010

  37. Surveys & Document Reviews • Surveys(via Survey Monkey) • Collaboration • Assessment • Goals and Processes • Document Review • Data Reflections (Individual & Collaborative) • Collaborative Meeting Agendas & Notes J. Burke 6/2010
