Module 1: Problem-Solving Implementation Issues Part 2 - The TIPS Method Session 2 Phase I Team Training Presented by the MBI Consultants
MBI/PBS Meeting Minutes and Problem-Solving Action Plan Form Today's Agenda Items: • Review the TIPS problem-solving method and the “Meeting Minutes” form. • Use the TIPS method to problem-solve an implementation issue at your site
Context • MBI teams are being expected to do problem solving • Most teams are not skilled at running problem-solving meetings and using data for decision-making
What do we need? • A clear model • Separate and similar procedures for • Management and/or implementation (infrastructure-data system) issues i.e.: “Meeting Foundations” • Outcome issues (analysis and decision-making) • The right information • A process to build and implement solutions. • A visual context
Organizing for effective problem solving conversations A key to collective problem solving is to provide a visual context that allows everyone to follow and contribute Problem Use Data Out of Time Solution Newton, J.

Identify Problem: Example The MBI team is having trouble getting staff to agree on the definitions of major and minor behaviors. How do they knowthis? • Self-Assessment Survey • Types of referrals principal is receiving • The MBI team wrote & disseminated drafts of the definitions of (mis)behavior in staff mailboxes. The principal asked the staff to vote on the definitions. After 3 attempts over a two week period, only 45% of the staff have approved the definitions.
Analyze the Problem: Example • Problem Statement Development • What: • 45% of staff have approved definitions of (mis)behavior written by the MBI team • How Often: • Definitions in the teacher’s mailboxes on 3 occasions w/administrator requesting vote 3 times • When… Who… Where… • Drafts put in mailboxes over two weeks • Why (is the problem sustaining)?
Develop Hypothesis: Example • The absence of a staff involvement & feedback has contributed to difficulties obtaining agreement on the misbehavior definitions. • The staff did not have the time • The staff did not see the importance because the definitions were just placed in mailboxes
Discuss & Select Solutions: Example • The MBI team brainstormed different ways to correct these issues. • The team reached consensus on the feedback procedures that would be presented to their school staff.
Develop & Implement Action Plan: Example • The MBI team disseminated the draft of the definitions for misbehavior during a staff meeting. • The MBI team addressed all questions, comments, and recommendations and revised the definitions. • The revised draft was redistributed during a staff meeting for approval.
Evaluate & Revise Action Plan: Example • 100% of the staff used the feedback procedure to provide comments, questions, and recommendations on the proposed definitions of misbehavior. • The school reached consensus on the definitions for misbehavior.
Big Ideas • Use DATA to drive problem solving • Follow a consistent process • Smallest change for largest improvement • Implementation fidelity • Communicate, communicate, communicate • Celebrate!
