Building Capacity of Effective Implementation of SW-PBIS District participation in Cohort training Cohorts ( )

Evaluation Schedule for Schools in Training Data Calendar At-A-Glance Data Calendar At-A-Glance

School-wide Evaluation Tool (SET) Results in Training - Cohorts

The average team attending training finished above 80 on the SET –117 schools finished at 80 or above For schools that didn’t quite get to 80, most were within 10 points and action planning can get over the 80 mark within the next year. Lessons Learned education.state.mn.us 7

A few patterns emerged for schools that scored below 80 on the SET at the end of year 2 –100% missed one or more SET evaluations –60% did not do a SAS –44% had an administrator miss one or more training days Lessons Learned education.state.mn.us 8

“Sustainability” Research identifies four factors that predict sustained implementation of PBIS. District Priority School Priority Capacity Building Team Use of Data –school team/staff skill, –regular team meetings, –data collection, –use of data for decision making, –presenting data to staff and community (McIntosh, et al., 2014)McIntosh, et al., 2014

#1 = Team Use of Data There are “happy accidents” that are a result of implementing PBIS. Focus – less time– on building skills if they are not building team use of data. –Posters will get posted –Popcorn-makers will pop –Videos will keep rollin’ How’s our team getting data for decisions that support our very specific strategies?

All the “Tools” They evolve and build off of each other Beyond cohort training... –expect that there will be small changes and tools that appear when you were not ready to use We love to guide the use of the tools.

Cool Research

Takeaways… Giving tokens (reinforcement) is more effective than taking away tokens (punishment) in the classroom Teachers are generally willing to use rewards Students can effectively deliver rewards to each other (tootling)

Applying to PBIS work Cohort training provides the time and tools to engineer recognition systems for teachers to use in the classroom Recognition systems reinforce universal strategies, like clearly defined and posted classroom expectations “Most teachers are willing to reward positive behaviors” makes our work easier. –Shifts effort from how to change a belief system to how to support staff to deliver tangible reinforcement (tokens, tickets, tootling, etc.) and provide students with specific praise/ feedback.

Measuring progress over time Increase or decrease in number of ODRs Suspension/Expulsion data THE CHALLENGE Educational settings contain variables that change from year to year. Enrollment changes Grade levels reconfiguration Schools close Composition of student body HOW DO WE LEVEL THE PLAYING FIELD?

Sustaining Exemplar Recognition Identify & recognize exemplar schools that have completed PBIS implementation and are continuing to achieving positive student outcomes by sustaining school-wide PBIS with fidelity. Coming in 2016 there will be recognition categories for districts. Please stay tuned for specific eligibility requirements coming in the winter of Updated Information Posted on Our Webpage:
