Problem Innovative practices do not fare well in

old organizational structures and systems

Organizational and system changes are essential to successful use of innovations Expect it Plan for it

Scale Up

To scale up interventions we must first scale up implementation capacity

Building implementation capacity is essential to maximizing the use of EBPs and other innovations

Large scale, real time change

Select a Transformation Zone

A vertical slice of the education system – from the classroom to the Capitol Small enough to be manageable Large enough to include all aspects of the

system Reinforce strengths, surface and solve issues,

manage risks and change processes

Considerations

Method more reactive than proactive

Not a coordinated implementation of multiple initiatives

Need to distill practices to basics by braiding Systems Practices Tools

Look to SISEP for potential means for helping to accomplishing this

First Steps - Winter

Getting Acquainted Understanding the Concept Building Trust Initial Meetings Scheduled Acknowledging a Need for Change

Page 28: Scaling Up in Illinois Integrated System for Student Achievement (ISSA)

Next Steps - Spring

SISEP Training in North Carolina Follow-up Site Visits with Consultants March retreat sharing Core Concepts

of each Initiative Realizing we have more in common

than suspected What’s in a Name? Creating a Common Vision

Page 29: Scaling Up in Illinois Integrated System for Student Achievement (ISSA)

Initial Focus Integrated Training

It is really all about school improvement planning for student success – initiative neutral

Must address what is actually mandated Must make it accessible for all schools Must blend practices and tools to be

doable at classroom level

SISEP Workgroups

Identification of additional people to support development of key pieces to be used in approach to districts Begin work on Tools and Documents

Work on common training elements for a braided Universal based on March dialogue

Synthesize assessment tools looking at common elements framework - district and school

Create Timetable for work Internal/External Coach descriptions

Page 34: Scaling Up in Illinois Integrated System for Student Achievement (ISSA)

Change of Focus - Summer

Evidence based practices (or braiding them) cannot occur if systems are not in place for support

State must the change agent in how schools do business of school improvement

SISEP is focusing on building the platform for launching ANY evidence based practice

Must identify and remove roadblocks above and below each level (national, state, region, district, school, classroom)

Scaling up of any future EBP will depend on existence of systems built now

SISEP FOCUS CHANGED TO DISTRICT
