  2. The Importance of 90% Implementation Dr. Doug Reeves Myth of Linearity

  3. What We Believe Happens…

  4. The Myth of Linearity “Greater implementation means better achievement, right?”

  5. What Really Happens…

  6. The Non-Linear Path of School Improvement

  10. Leadership for Implementation Every organization – indeed, every person - suffers to some degree from a gap between intention and action. Leadership makes a difference. Reeves, 2009

  11. Implementation Strategies Create Short Term Wins – Individuals need immediate, continuing reinforcement to sustain meaningful change. • Examples • Post behavioral data • Post interdisciplinary assignments and resulting student work • Post the % of staff that agreed on the score of a collaboratively evaluated assignment • Use formative assessment (Reeves, 2009)

  12. Implementation Strategies Recognize effective practices simply and clearly throughout the year • Examples: • Host an “adult science fair” showing professional practice and student achievement. • Develop “action research” teams and share results • Display achievement scores and professional practice associated with the scores. (Reeves, 2009)

  13. Implementation Strategies Emphasize effectiveness, not popularity. • Too many change efforts fail because leaders have underestimated the power of prevailing culture in undermining change. • Stand up for effective practice even if changes are initially unpopular. (Reeves, 2009)

  14. You won’t close the implementation gap with another set of three ring binders or announcements about the latest initiative. Close the gap with immediate wins, visible recognition of what works, a focus on effectiveness and a direct appeal to the values that brought us to this profession in the first place. (Reeves, 2009)
