The Road Less Traveled: Making a Difference in Students Lives Tim Lewis, Ph.D. University of Missouri OSEP Center on Positive Behavioral Interventions and Supports pbis.org

Starting Point…. We can’t “make” students learn or behave We can create environments to increase the likelihood students learn and behave Environments that increase the likelihood are guided by a core curriculum and implemented with consistency and fidelity

With any journey, there is the possibility of getting a little lost

SYSTEMS PRACTICES DATA Support Staff Behavior Support Decision Making Support Student Behavior Your SW-PBS Map

Across the Journey Teams - Administrator Social behavior curriculum developed / adapted Data-based decision making Problem solving logic Access to Technical Assistance Working toward district/regional support SW-PBS is a Marathon, not a sprint Focus across is on what students should be learning versus what they should not be doing

Creating Environments Environments that increase the likelihood are guided by a core curriculum and implemented with consistency and fidelity

Creating Environments to Increase the Likelihood: Universals Annually: – Revisit your set of expectations and teaching activities – Assess and address “problem spots” across school environments – Assess effective instruction and management in each classroom High Rates of Positive Feedback

Teach & Practice……..

Post expectations across school settings…

4:1 Positive Ratio?

Creating Environments to Increase the Likelihood: Classrooms Keep in mind: – Most problem behaviors occur in the classroom – Effective social and academic instruction is essential for ALL classrooms – Classrooms are “personal”

Inverse relationship between increased probability of compliance induced by effective teaching on the rate of disruptive behavior (Gunter, Shores, Jack, Denny, & DePaepe, 1994)

Importance of Effective Instruction (Sanders, 1999) The single biggest factor affecting academic growth of any population of youngsters is the effectiveness of the classroom. The answer to why children learn well or not isn't race, it isn't poverty, it isn't even per-pupil expenditure at the elementary level. The classroom's effect on academic growth dwarfs and nearly renders trivial all these other factors that people have historically worried about.

So one of our own is now blaming everything on the teacher!! If classroom teachers are struggling, it is a systems issue NOT an individual teacher issues

Creating Effective Classroom Environments Insuring ALL faculty and staff engaging in effective instruction and classroom management Align resources to challenges – Work within existing organization structure – Raze and rebuild Must build an environment that simultaneously supports student and adult behavior

On school reform… Kauffman states “…attempts to reform education will make little difference until reformers understand that schools must exist as much for teachers as for students. Put another way, schools will be successful in nurturing the intellectual, social, and moral development of children only to the extent that they also nurture such development of teachers.” (1993, p. 7).

Not Our Graduates!

Creating Environments Focus on socially important behaviors Inviting atmosphere / Friendly & Helpful Connections / relationships between: – Staff-Staff – Staff-Students – Students- Adults Is your school a place where you would want your own child to attend?

Core Curriculum Environments that increase the likelihood are guided by a core curriculum and implemented with consistency and fidelity

Core Curriculum Based on local issues/problems – “What do you want them to do instead” Clear goal/purpose Matched to student need Research-based Accompanying training and support for all staff to implement – Mini-modules + “tip sheets” (pbismissouri.org) – Performance feedback

Meaningful PD Outcomes Staff Development Change in Teacher Practice Change in Student Outcomes Change in Teacher Beliefs A Model of the Process of Teacher Change Guskey, 1986

Peer Coaching with Performance Feedback 4 teacher mini-lessons on: – instructional talk – prompts – feedback – wait time Implemented school-wide – provided a tip sheet and mini in-service on each – weekly reminders from administrators

Consistency and Fidelity Environments that increase the likelihood are guided by a core curriculum and implemented with consistency and fidelity

Consistency & Fidelity On-going, sustained, and purposeful training On-going access to technical assistance Periodic checks – Student outcomes – Student perceptions – Adult perceptions Working toward a District/Region Wide PBS initiative that will sustain over time (Scaling up)

Assess for Fidelity of Implementation

Scaling Up Does not simply equal more schools or every school within a district/region/state Outcome = increasing school’s adoption and sustained use of evidence-based practices with integrity that lead to improved academic and social outcomes for students with accompanying organizational supports to allow replication

Research Findings on Scaling Up (Fixsen, Naoom, Blase, Friedman, & Wallace, 2005, p. 70) Best evidence documents what doesn’t work: – Information dissemination alone – Training by itself

Research Findings on Scaling Up (Fixsen, Naoom, Blase, Friedman, & Wallace, 2005, p. 70) What does work – Long term, multi-level approaches – Skills-based training – Practice-based coaching – Practioner performance-feedback – Program evaluation – Facilitative administrative practices – Methods for systems intervention

Consistency & Fidelity Boosters based on data Apply logic of SW-PBS to adult learners – Tell-show-practice – Data / Feedback – Data Decisions Align Initiatives to SW-PBS work – Eliminate competing initiatives that do not produce measurable outcomes

Aligning Initiatives

Alignment of Missouri State Improvement Plan, CPS District Improvement Plan and SW-PBS

Is Your School There Yet?

Remember, Building a Complete Continuum is a Marathon not a Sprint

In the United States Over 13,300 schools 46 State-wide PBS initiatives

In Australia… Queensland – 330 (over 25% of schools) NSW – 561 (over 25% of schools) Tasmania, Victoria, South Australia….

Its Not Just About Numbers of Schools

Even at the High School Level…. Triton High School – 48% Free and reduced lunch – 59% reduction in suspension – Halved the drop out rate Mountain View High School – 30% free and reduced lunch – 30% reduction in ODR – Last to first in achievement in district

An Example of What is Possible Field Elementary School

High Diversity – School has 290 students; 50% minority; 20% English Language Learners; 13% special education Instructional leader turnover Poverty – 79% of students qualify for free and reduced lunches Highly transient population

Field Elementary School +Teachers and Staff committed to the increasing academic and social success of all students +A committed Principal who supported faculty in their efforts to change the way the taught to improve children’s lives

Field Elementary School Academic Standing – Annual Yearly Progress (AYP) 5% of all students scored proficient in 2005, according to the Missouri Assessment Program. Breakdown by group: – 0% African American – 18% Caucasian – 0% Students with disabilities – 0% English Language Learners – 7% Free/Reduced Priced Lunch

Some Final Thoughts On the Road to Success

All of us will have set-backs on the journey

Allow yourself plenty of time to get there

Remember to bring the kids along

No matter how tempting….. Stay Positive!

Teach & Practice, Teach & Practice, Teach & Practice……

Remember We can’t “make” students learn or behave We can create environments to increase the likelihood students learn and behave Environments that increase the likelihood are guided by a core curriculum and implemented with consistency and fidelity
