2. Outcomes  Understand the district approach to evaluating effectiveness of curriculum and instructional delivery through data review processes  Appreciate the potential collective impact of small individual improvements in STAAR performance  Recognize the district CBA data analysis process

3. Organizational Learning The detection and correction of error (Argyris & Schön, 1978) Organization-wide continuous improvement process that enhances the collective ability to accept, make sense of, and respond to internal and external change Systematic integration and collective interpretation of new knowledge gained through risk-taking as experimentation resulting in organizational action Variable Inputs Predictable Quality Outputs D SA P Responsive Processes Argyris, C., & Schön, D.

18. CBA central data review process  Identify 3 items with the lowest performance on two tests under the coordinator’s purview  Determine what students should know and be able to do to correctly answer the questions  Use item answer distribution to determine common errors in thinking or problem solving  Ascertain where in the scope and sequence students had an opportunity to learn the necessary content or skills  Celebrate data indicating performance improvement or mastery of standards  Based on OFIs identified, develop materials for review or reteach and make updates to curriculum documents

19. TEKS 4.5B. Predict the changes caused by heating and cooling such as ice becoming liquid water and condensation forming on the outside of a glass of ice water 4.5B (Unit overview, 1 st 6 weeks): Students might think that condensation on a glass comes from inside the glass, rather than from the outside air; be sure to clarify that water vapor in the air condenses on the glass.

20. Data review take-aways  Recognition that we need to be finding solutions, rather than making excuses  Find ways to address gaps both moving forward this year, and by improving curriculum and delivery for next year  Currently in the learning curve to determine the most efficient and effective way to review CBA data and respond in a manner conducive to improving instruction  Meeting with HEB coordinators  Beefing up review process for February CBAs  Implementing expectations for similar reviews at the campus level next year
