Creating Conditions For Learning “Improvement is change with direction, sustained over time, that moves entire systems, raising the average level of quality and performance while at the same time decreasing the variation among units, and engaging people in the analysis and understanding of why some actions seem to work and others don’t.” Richard Elmore

PELP Coherence Framework

“Change throughout the system will not come about through a thousand points of light, but from steadily increasing, concentrated light and heat of one sun.” Donahoe 1993 Creating Conditions For Learning

Reflective Questions What are your greatest challenges as it relates to the instructional program and student achievement? What are your apprehensions?
