  1. The Continuous Improvement Process Tutorial • Goal of the Tutorial • Introduction to the process - (for those with little or no experience with the framework) • Review of the process - (for those wanting to check their understanding, or refresh their memories)

  2. The Continuous Improvement Process Tutorial • Materials needed for this tutorial – download a copy of the required worksheet is available for download to the right of this screen • Estimated time needed to complete tutorial – approximately 15-30 minutes depending upon the number of participants and the depth of your interaction with the application activities

  3. Your Work: • Select one work activity that you are responsible for. • Individually or with a partner, outline the steps you typically follow when making decisions.

  4. The Continuous Improvement Process The cornerstone of any school improvement effort is the relentless pursuit of excellence through the application of the Continuous Improvement Process.

  5. The Continuous Improvement Process The process we use to get even better!

  6. Continuous Improvement Process Needs Assessment: Activities • Collect and analyze multiple sources of data (quantitative and qualitative) • Identify prioritize needs (at a system, building, individual level) ; establish the “what” • Identify root cause(s) of needs; establish the “why” • Establish a baseline

  7. Continuous Improvement Process Needs Assessment: Guiding Questions • What data sources, and assessment tools and methods are available and necessary to identify areas of need? • “What” are the identified needs and “Why” does this need exist (root cause)? • What is the baseline (specific and measureable) for the identified need(s)?

  8. Continuous Improvement Process Planning: Activities • Select research-based practices to address identified needs • Establish intended results/goals • Create implementation action plan(s) • Plan professional development • Align resources

  9. Continuous Improvement Process Planning: Guiding Questions • What research-based approaches best address the identified need(s)? • What are the intended results/goals (measureable)? • How will staff be adequately trained to carry out the action plan? • How will resources be prioritized to address the needs?

  10. Continuous Improvement Process Implementation: Activities • Implement action plan(s) w/integrity/fidelity • Collect and analyze implementation data (adult actions) • Collect and analyze progress/performance data (students) • Monitor resources • Make mid-course corrections as necessary

  11. Continuous Improvement Process Implementation: Guiding Questions • How will we assure the action plan is being implemented with integrity and fidelity and measured? • How will progress toward intended outcomes be monitored? • What “mid-course” corrections are necessary (delivery of action plan or resource allocation)?

  12. Continuous Improvement Process • Evaluation: Activities • Collect and analyze data so progress toward intended results and goal can be evaluated • Collect and analyze datato determine the merit, and worth of the plan/program • Link data back into the needs assessment phase and modify plan (chosen solution, action plan, goal, etc…) if indicated by data

  13. Continuous Improvement Process Evaluation: Guiding Questions • What data needs to be collected and analyzed to determine the success of the action plan in meeting the intended goal(s)? • Was the goal met and is the current action plan worthy of continuation? • How will evaluation data be used to redefine or reconsider identified needs?

  14. Continuous Improvement Initiatives Individual Professional Development Process Iowa Professional Development Model (IPDM) Comprehensive School/Service Improvement Plan LEA and AEA (CSIP) Schools/Districts in Need of Assistance (SINA/DINA) Instructional Decision Making Process (IDM) Positive Behavior Intervention Supports (PBIS) General Education Interventions (GEI) 14

  15. Developing a culture of Continuous Improvement Process Individually or with a partner, reflect upon the following questions: • Which phase(s) do you/your school do well? How do you know? • Which phase(s) do you/your school need to improve? How do you know? • How can the work I do improve?

  16. Thank you for taking the time to complete this tutorial on the Continuous Improvement Process.
