Throw Me Something Mister…. Gathering & Applying Useful Data that makes a difference at the Local Level
The Problems Prior to Implementation • Perkins Core Indicators were hard to translate value and meaning at Local or Regional levels • No Primary Data for Louisiana Tech Prep • Consuming paperwork process with limited purpose and feedback
The Goals to Improve the Tech Prep Story • Keep it Simple • Make it Useful • Require Use through the Local Application Process (LAP) • Provide opportunities to Shine
Develop An Outside Partnership • Credible Independent Authority • Outside perspective combined with strong knowledge base of comparable programs • Related data developed through School-to-Work
Identify Critical Questions • What indications are there that Louisiana Tech Prep Program is addressing its mission and goals? • What indications are there that Regional Consortia are addressing their respective goals and related objectives as stated in their LAPS?
Critical Questions Continued • What issues or concerns have been identified at this time that warrant additional consideration by state and local Tech Prep administrators as they pursue the purposes of Tech Prep in Louisiana?
Chronology • Director/Evaluation Team Understanding of Evaluation Needs • Evaluation Team Drafts of Documents • Consortia Meeting to Review Drafts
Chronology Continued • Revised Documents and Procedures “Shared” • Identification of Evaluation as a Dynamic Process • Adopt/Adapt/Terminate Process Components
Tools for the Tasks(Keep It Simple) • Tech Prep Evaluation Guide Forms • Consortium Data Page • Articulation Summary Matrix • Business/Industry Involvement • Consortium Activity Report
Site Visits – A Chance to SHINE! • Site Visit Protocol • Visitor Protocol • Lessons Learned
Findings • Master Key Findings • Individual Site Key Findings • The Information that we could not have received any other way….
