SYSTEMS DATA PRACTICES 3 PBIS Areas for Behavior Support • SYSTEMS (Support Staff Behavior) Data-based decision making Team based problem solving Long term sustainability • DATA (Support Decision Making) On-going data use • RESEARCH VALIDATED PRACTICEs (Support Student Behavior) E.g., Social skills instruction Functional behavioral assessment Direct instruction
Classes of Data • Effort data (Are we working the plan?) Team Implementation Checklist (TIC) Self-Assessment Survey (SAS) • Outcome data (Is it having an effect?) “Big 5” Graphs Triangle % • Fidelity data (Are we following the plan?) School Evaluation Tool (SET) Benchmarks of Quality (BoQ)
Effort Data • Team Implementation Checklist (TIC) • Self-Assessment Survey (SAS)
Team Implementation Checklist How is our PBIS team functioning?
Team Implementation Checklist (TIC) • Is used to evaluate the extent of the team implementation process • Is used to identify remaining implementation needs • Is used to assess the success of the implementation process
Team Implementation Checklist (TIC) • Teams complete the TIC monthly • Results shared with all school personnel • Will evaluate progress toward meeting PBIS goals
Self-Assessment Survey (SAS) • Is used annually to assess the effective behavior support systems in a school. The survey examines the status and need for improvement of four behavior support systems: • School-wide discipline systems • Non-classroom management systems (e.g., cafeteria, hallway, playground), • Classroom management systems • Systems for individual students engaging in chronic problem behaviors
Eight Steps Planning Guide • 1 - Establish Team Membership • 2 – Develop Behavior Purpose Statement • 3 – Identify Positive SW Expectations • 4 – Develop Lesson Plan for Teaching SW Positive Expectations • 5 – Develop Lesson Plans for Teaching Positive CW Expectations • 6 – Develop Continuum of Procedures for Encouraging SW Expectations • 7 – Develop Continuum of Procedures for Discouraging Rule Violations • 8 – Develop Procedures for Data-Based Decision-Making & Monitoring
School-Wide Evaluation Tool (SET) The SET is a research-validated instrument that is designed to assess and evaluate the critical features of school-wide effective behavior support across an academic school year.
Information Gathered Can Be Used To: • Assess features that are in place • Determine annual goals • Evaluate on-going efforts • Design and revise procedures • Compare year to year efforts in the area of PBIS
SET Evaluates Questions Across 7 Areas: • Expectations defined • Behavioral expectations taught • Acknowledgement procedures • Correction procedures • Monitoring and evaluation • Management • District-level support
School-wide Evaluation Tool (SET)How to get ready… • Schedule a 2-3 hour block of time for evaluator • Request that administrators inform staff and students that a SET evaluator will be on site and randomly asking staff and students questions (1-2 minutes per person maximum) • Schedule the administrator interview at the beginning of the visit (approximately 20-30 minutes) • Assure that 3 PBIS team members can be interviewed as part of the 10 staff interviews • Assure that students (15) are randomly available for interviews (2 questions)
Assemble the Following Documents for the SET… • School discipline handbook (discipline procedures) • Office Discipline Referral Form/positive behavior acknowledgment systems (SWIS or other) • Behavioral incident summaries or reports (e.g., office referrals, suspensions, expulsions) • School improvement plan goals indicating behavior as a goal • Annual Action Plan with timelines for meeting SW-PBIS goals (PBIS Team) • Staff agreements on 3-5 PBIS expectations • Teaching matrix, copies of lesson plans for teaching behavioral expectations If the document has not yet been developed, just let the evaluator know.
SET Evaluators • Choose a staff member (part of application) • Will need training (2-3 hour webinar & 3 hour reliability check • Conduct SET (2-3 hours onsite, travel, report • SET: Fall & Spring
SWIS – School Wide Information System • Web-based information system for gathering, entering, summarizing, reporting and using office discipline referral information • Teams use this discipline data to drive the PBIS process in their buildings
SWIS – School Wide Information System • Generally teams look at 5 main graphs to help them make data-based decisions for their building: 1) Average referrals per day/per month 2) Referrals by problem behavior 3) Referrals by location 4) Referrals by time 5) Referrals by student
SWIS Readiness All Schools will be set up with SWIS by Dec 31st, 2012!
