12. SCAN Evaluation & Research Plan • Key Data Systems – External Evaluator • Multiple assessments • Student surveys, Teacher surveys, observations, notebook studies, teacher content assessments, student content assessments (INSPECT), & CSTs • Data is used to inform our Professional Development Practices

13. Assessment Results to Date • Summer Institute Survey (Qualitative Data-KDS) • Over 85% answered “A Lot” to being inspired, gaining new techniques and gaining new knowledge97% answered very or extremely to how valuable the information that they learned at the training • Walk-through observations • High level of implementation • Teachers in “learning phase” of incorporating practices

14. Analysis of Assessments • Progress is expected and on track • 24 hrs Follow-Up Training provides continued support • 2 Week Set-Up for Success establishes foundation for effective use of classroom practices • Learning Curve expected during early implementation: • Shifting paradigms: teaching practices will enhance classroom success • Integration of Notebooks & Journals practices • Students, parents, administration, district personnel, etc.

15. Supporting your SCAN Teacher • Honor their PLC time • Allow for learning curve • Keep them in same grade for next 3 years • Purchase materials: glue sticks, tape, highlighters, rulers, trash bins, etc. • Purchase composition books • Purchase large composition books for SPED, SDC classes
