28. VI. Design Feedback How is data assessed and how is this communicated to stakeholders

29. How is DDIS Adjusted and Evaluated SMART goals Specific Measured Attainable Results oriented Time bound

30. Adjustment

31. Evaluation

32. VII. Summative and Formative Assessment We must change the paradigm

33. VIII. Summary and Results: Is It Worth It? Scores will increase Innovative programs will be developed ESL Literacy Gives you the framework for the improvement process
