5. Opening Activity:  What were your successes and challenges in using PBIS data this year? (fidelity and/or student outcome measures)  In a moment, we will ask for a sampling of responses. 5

6. How to use PBIS data to ensure successes… Share your data with others, use your data to plan for next year and acknowledge incremental success along the say Use your BoQ data to determine areas of focus Use SAS data to show staff you value and use their input to make changes Use data to reward staff and student performance Use data to determine taking breaks between “roll- outs” 6

7. Purpose  To build competence and confidence in your role as facilitators of Data Days  To introduce/review useful tools and strategies to wrap- up this year  Plan for sustainability! 7

9. Differentiate based on your experience Foundations Think about how you plan to accomplish the work. Full Implementation: Think about how to make it easy, better, more effective. Sustainability: Think about how to continue the practice and ensure sustainability.

10. 1.0 Importance of Data Days and Role of the Facilitator/Data Analyst

11. Characteristics of an Effective Data Team 11

12.  Role:  To create data summaries that will facilitate the team in  determining if there are problems  jump starting a problem solving discussion, and  evaluating the impact of solutions and fidelity of implementation  General Responsibilities:  Prepares a brief written summary for distribution at meetings using each of the data sources needed for problem solving and decision making  Help to generate reports during the meeting as questions of the data arise Data Analyst: Role & Responsibilities

13.  How?  Establish the role of a data analyst (and backup person)  Teach data analyst to develop data summary  DIBELS, SWIS…. Etc  Start problem solving by defining the problem with precision  Refine precision of problem statement through inferences and hypothesis  Have data accessible for custom report generation during the meeting Launch the meeting with a data summary that helps define the problem with precision

14. POLL: To what extent does someone function as data analyst in your PBIS planning meetings? 1. Data has not been used in our meetings so there has been no need for a data analyst 2. There is no one in particular serving in this role. The Team reviews and analyzes the data together at the meetings. 3. One person on the team brings data to the meeting for the team to review. 4. There is a person identified in this role who prepares data for review and points out trends in advance for discussion and problem solving at meetings. 14

15. Effective meetings extend before and after the actual meeting time. Other key roles are necessary! 15 BEFORE: Set agenda and send to team Collect data, review, and prepare summary statements DURING: Follow agenda & time frames Review data Make precision problem statements Develop solutions Take notes and set action items AFTER: Complete action items Follow-up on action item status

16. 16 Consider TIPS!

17. Formal problem solving steps that a group can use to build and implement solutions. Access to the right information at the right time in the right format A process for using data to make decisions: Formal roles (facilitator, recorder, data analyst) Specific expectations (before, during & after meetings) Access and use of data Use of electronic and projected meeting minutes A structured meeting process 17 TIPS Offers:

18. Types of Data to Consider:  Student Outcome Data  Review ODR Data “Big 7”  CICO, SIMEO and/or ISIS Data  Staff Perception Data  Self-Assessment (SAS) Data  Leadership Team Self-Assessment  Implementation Fidelity Data  Benchmarks of Quality (BoQ)  Benchmarks for Advanced Tiers (BAT)  Action Planning Tools  Action Plan for Sustainability (Universal and Targeted) 18

27. TIPS Problem-Solving “Mantra” 1. Do we have a problem? (identify) 2. What is the precise nature of our problem? (define, clarify, confirm/disconfirm inferences) 3. Why does the problem exist, & what can we do about it? (hypothesis & solution) 4. What are the actual elements of our plan? (Action Plan) 5. Is our plan being implemented, & is it working? (evaluate & revise plan) Innovation neutral: Use for Reading, Behavior, Math, School Improvement REMEMBER to use…..

28. Why does the problem exist, & what can we do about it? (hypothesis & solution) Problem Statement: The sixth graders are disruptive & use inappropriate language in the cafeteria between 11:30 AM and 12:00 PM Hypothesis: We believe they are trying to get attention from their peers. 28

29. 29 Solution development for disruption in cafeteria Prevention: Remove/alter “trigger” for problem behavior Maintain current lunch schedule, but shift classes to balance numbers. Teaching: Define, instruct & model expected behavior Teach behavioral expectations in cafeteria Reward: Expected/alternative behavior when it occurs; prompt as necessary Establish “Friday Five”: Extra 5 min of lunch on Friday for five good days. Extinction: Increase acknowledgement of presence of desired behavior Encourage all students to work for “Friday Five”… make problem behavior less rewarding than desired behavior Corrective Consequence: Use non- rewarding/non-reinforcing responses when problem behavior occurs Active supervision and continued early consequence (ODR) Data Collection: Indicate how you know when you have a solution Maintain ODR record and supervisor weekly report

32. 2.0 Benchmarks of Quality (BoQ) – Understanding your results

33. Navigating www.pbisapps.orgwww.pbisapps.org 33

34. Benchmarks of Quality (BoQ) 34 Purpose:Assess leadership teams perceptions of PBIS implementation at the Universal Level Format:Survey on www.pbisapps.orgwww.pbisapps.org Completed by:Leadership Team, School Coordinator and SU/District Coordinator When?In the Spring

35. BoQ 10 Critical Features: 1. PBIS Team 2. Faculty/Staff Commitment 3. Effective Procedures for Dealing with Problem Behaviors 4. Data Entry and Analysis Plan Established 5. Expectations and Rules Developed 6. Reward Recognition Program Established 7. Lesson Plans for Teaching Expectations/Rules 8. Implementation Plan 9. Classroom Systems 10. Evaluation

40. BoQ Team Summary Sheet 40

41. Leadership Team Activity for BoQ Review and Planning  As a leadership team, review your BoQ Data using the BoQ Team Summary Sheet:  Using the Individual Items Report identify three areas of Strength  Using the same report, list three areas in need of development  If there are other Action Items, place those under the Other Action Items section on the Team Summary sheet  Come up with 2 priority focus areas for next school year 41

42. EXAMPLE: Presentation to Staff

43. This year 74% of our staff completed the SAS. 67% indicated that they think school-wide system is in place compared to 48% last year. However, 61% still say this is a medium or high priority for improvement. 43

44. 58% of staff think that non-classroom settings are in place, an increase of 19% since last year. However, 33% say this is still a high priority for improvement. 44 Non-classroom settings

45. Overall, implementation has improved in all domains 45

46. Based on your feedback our team has determined the following areas for improvement: Example: 1) Focus on maintaining our Universal Efforts 2) Enroll more students in Targeted Supports (USE the SAS Summary to help articulate these)
