1 Spring Branch ISD Strategy Fellowship Application Project Matthew W. Martin May 6, 2015

2 Premise  The applicant has been charged with designing a process to help a team rethink a district’s strategic approach to student Assessment.  The applicant has been charged with facilitating a team in the initial rethinking/modifying of current assessment approaches so that they better align with the districts unified commitment to T- 2-4  The district began the innovative shift to this comprehensive commitment with the establishment of cross-functional teams (CFTs), from which many initiatives have already been comprehensively put in place.  The full strategic execution requires an alignment of the results these streams produced, identifying indicators, and assessment data with the longitudinal goals specified in the T-2-4 commitment.

3 Facilitating Strategic Collaboration in the Initial Stages Objective: To aligning assessment and a P-20 continuum to district T-2-4 goals ensuring educational equity outcome for all students.

4 Stages of Team Development  “A team develops in stages, over time, before it becomes really productive” (Managing Cross-Functional Teams, 1994)  When bring the collective products of multi cross-functional teams (CFTs), i.e., streams, together the same developmental stages may apply.  Let’s review.  Forming, Storming, Norm, Perform  Our concentration for this presentation will focus on the initial stages.

5 Initial Reconfiguring Stage The focus of this section is on facilitation of CFTs in the initial stages of calibrating streams as they rethink student assessment.

6 Initial Questions  “What is the group’s purpose?” How can these be aligned with other CFTs product?  “What methods and procedures will we use?”  What data, data collection, and measurement instruments should be utilized?  What task-oriented tool best fits our purposes?  In realistic terms, “what is expected from the group” and “how will [our work] be judged? (Managing Cross-Functional Teams, 1994)

7 S.M.A.R.T. framework (for goal writing)  Specific  Measurable  Attainable  Relevant  Time-bound

8 Initial Activities  “Review team charter” as well as the charters of other teams.  “Write a [unifying] mission statement” which includes a clear definition of measurable outcomes.  “Set realistic and attainable goals.”  “Clarify tasks and relationships.” Create a task log.  “Set standards and limits”  Agree upon a collective schedule for meetings and due dates. Each meeting follows a firm agenda.  Activities that allow for constructive giving and receiving of feedback in a non-judgmental, professional environment. (Managing Cross-Functional Teams, 1994)
