Structuring the Implementation Conversation Session CallsGENERAL Every other month we host a general webinar session wersquod invite someone to present for 15 minutes on a topic then facilitate a conversation using some guiding questions and for the last part provide tools related to the topic A wiki post would be created for each topic The presentation file notes and related tools would be posted to the wiki Comments by states would be posted within each wiki topic
SPECIFIC Provide opportunities for small group of states to meet with like projects That is states that are running similar initiatives (ex behavior multi-tiered approach) A wiki could be created for each initiative topic
To facilitate the process In December wersquoll disseminate a survey to Project Directors and Evaluators to select Top 5 initiatives for a specific initiative group discussion and resource sharing

February 19 Joint Directors and Evaluators WebinarUsing Technology for Professional Development Technical Assistance and Strategic CommunicationPresenter Larry Edelman MS University of Colorado Boulder
This lively provocative session stimulated our thinking about how to adopt and use technology to effectively conduct needs assessments deliver training and follow-up support performance disseminate information and provide technical assistance The session demonstrated a number of existing and emerging technologies and provided tools for determining the feasibility of adoption

Selection Criteria for Intensive States
The State has documented implementation of an evidence-based curriculuminstruction initiative or a behavior support program
The State has demonstrated committed leadership at the State level
The State is willing to dedicate roughly $2 million a year to scaling up evidence-based practices
The State is willing to participate in and contribute to a community of practice
The State has a statewide data collection system in place
copy Dean Fixsen Karen Blase Robert Horner George Sugai 2009
Benefits to a State Increase capacity of the state to implement any
evidence-based practice fully with good outcomesDe-silo current and future implementation efforts
(braid activities cost-share funds for effective supports for individual initiatives)
Build on local strengths context and accomplishments
Implement evidence-based practices at a sustainable scale of social importance
Document value of implementation to achieve desired student outcomes (the ldquofive Rsrdquo)

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
