Validating the Need for Systemic Change: Standard Practice Instructional Leadership Training February 5, 2013
Standard Practice • Standard • Flag or other conspicuous object to serve as a rallying point for a military force • From Old French estandart, probably from Frankish standhard, literally "stand fast or firm" • Authoritative or recognized exemplar of quality or correctness • Unit of measure • From Anglo-French, is perhaps metaphoric, the royal standard coming to stand for royal authority in matters like setting weights and measures Source: Online Etymology Dictionary
Standard Practice • Practice • To do or perform often, customarily, or habitually • To be professionally engaged in • To perform repeatedly to acquire skill • Expertise and 10,000 hours of practice • “In practically any job it is dedication to deliberate practice that makes you outstanding; it’s not talent.” • “Deliberate practice is a demanding activity that is not inherently enjoyable.”
Questions • What are we willing to stand fast and firm for? • What are the standard processes and procedures that we follow when students don’t learn? • How do we support teachers as they engage in the difficult work of deliberate practice?

Messages • Performance plateaus when systems reach physical limits imposed by methods, strategies, and approaches • New approaches take time to learn, practice, and perfect before performance surpasses that produced by the old system • New effective methods are often developed by individuals not at the top level of performance using older techniques
