What are Data? • What are data? • Substitute “information” • Intimidating? • No reason • Sometimes numbers, sometimes not
How Are Data Useful? • Identify problems before they become difficult • Pinpoint a problem to create a functional solution • Test possible solutions • Monitor solutions to see if they’re working
Office Discipline Referrals Current Over Time Attendance In-School and Out-of-School Suspensions PBIS Assessments (SAS, TIC, BoQ, SET, etc.) Staff Surveys, Teacher Reports What Data Do We Have?
Do we have any problems in our school? Start by Asking a Question
What is the problem? • State the problem precisely! • What is the problem behavior? • How often is it happening? • Where is it happening? • When is it happening? • Who is involved? • Why is the problem sustaining?
Activity • Use SWIS data to answer • these questions: • What? • How often? • Where? • When? • Who? • Why is it sustaining?
Create a Precise Problem Statement For team-based problem solving, it’s important that everyone is focusing on the same problem, with the same assumptions! Activity: We’ve found the answers to the Big Questions, so let’s turn them into a Precise Problem Statement.
Example Example of a Precise Problem Statement: • There are more ODRs for aggressionon the playground thanlast year. These are most likely to occur during first recess, with a large number of students, and the aggression is related togetting access to the new playground equipment.
Other Questions • How do our data compare to previous years? • Is there a trend? • How do our data compare to national averages? • SWIS has averages
Action Planning Now that we know the problem, how do we solve it?
Developing a Solution • Prevention: How do we prevent the problem from occurring? • Change the environment • Change the schedule • Teach appropriate behavior • Use problem behavior as a negative example
Developing a Solution, cont. • Recognition: How do we recognize students who act appropriately? • Short-term ‘special’ type of acknowledgement activity - challenge • Extra acknowledgements for specific behavior
Developing a Solution, cont. Extinction: How do we keep problem behavior from being rewarded? Consequences: What will the consequence be for the problem behavior?
Developing a Solution • Data Collection: How will we know if this is working? • What data will be used? • ODRs • Reports from teachers, staff
Putting the Plan into Action • Who will carry out each of the actions? • Don’t give all the responsibility to one person – this is a team effort! • When will the actions take place? Make a deadline. • What is our goal with this plan? Needs to be measurable! • How often will we review the plan’s progress and make revisions?
Decision Making for Systems • Where are we with our PBIS implementation? • How committed are administration, faculty and staff? • How is our team functioning? • Do we have school-wide expectations and are they being taught and reinforced? • Do we have a system for collecting and using data for decision making?
Assessment Tools • Team Implementation Checklist (TIC) • 3 times per year • Completed by PBIS Universal team at team meeting • Guides the implementation process • Benchmarks of Quality (BoQ) • Completed in the spring each year • Completed by PBIS Universal team at team meeting • Measures Universal implementation • Helps to identify strengths and weaknesses that can be used in action planning • Self Assessment Survey (SAS) • Completed once a year, at beginning or end of year • Completed by all teachers, staff, administrators • Assesses how well systems and practices are established in 4 areas: school-wide, classroom, non-classroom, individual students
PBIS Assessments Team Implementation Checklist Benchmarks of Quality Self-Assessment Survey Available online at www.pbisassessment.org
Sustainability • Using data on a regular basis is the key to success! • Keep staff informed – increase their buy-in • Show that PBIS is working! • Share successes with staff, district, parents, community
