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

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

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.

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
