Data Driven Instruction: Steps for Getting Started
1
Let’s Meet!
October 13, 2011
All four people have to run.
The baton has to be held and passed by all participants.
You can have world class speed. However, if opportunities are missed for passing the baton successfully then the team is not successful in the end.
What is required is a collaborative, systemic approach!
What has to happen for participants to be successful in a relay race?
2
Today’s Outcomes: Define the non-negotiable, systemic
requirements for successful DDI implementation in a building
Compare these critical elements of DDI to the elements that currently exist in your building
Identify possible next steps for implementing and/ or refining DDI in your building
Jot down a few words and/ or phrases that come to mind when you hear DDI.
Think about what might be the purpose of DDI.
What is Data Driven Instruction?

Instruction that is planned according to assessment data analysis in an on-going cycle of identifying a learning need, developing an instructional plan to address that need, assessing to determine if the plan is working and/ or if another need is present, developing another instructional plan, etc.

Data Driven Instruction
6
What key components are inherent in this definition?
The teacher develops a writing task that asks students to write an argument paper.
Students write the papers.
Upon analysis of the results, 20% of students have thesis statements, 65% of students are using supporting evidence from the text, and 95% of students are using paragraphing.
The teacher writes a new unit to intentionally teach thesis statements as well as using evidence to match the thesis statement.
The teacher works with the 5 students in a small group to teach paragraphing.

Common Assessments
10
All students across the grade level take the same assessment which is aligned to the common core standards and has the same types of questions found on the state exams to demonstrate what they know and are able to do in a particular content area.
These assessments can be:
10 week unit exams Writing assignments Quizzes Benchmark assessments Etc

Common Assessments
12
A math unit test that is given to all 4th grade students that has the same type of rigorous questions on state exams and that assesses common core mathematics standards
Examples
13
A writing assignment that asks all 7th grade students to read two pieces of text and develop an argument on the issue presented in both articles using specific evidence from both articles in their response (This assessment is aligned to Common Core Literacy Shifts 4 & 5)
Same type of question(s) that are found on state exams (rigor and content)
Aligned with the common core standards

What is it?
What would you look for?
What will you do with what you find?
Analysis
18
Identify patterns of strengths & weaknesses
Identify standards that students are meeting & standards (or elements of standards) for which students need more targeted instruction & support
Identify whole group needs, small group needs, and individual needs
Analysis
19Handout pg.6
What information will you gain from your assessment?
What content and skills is your assessment measuring? What common core standards are being measured? How will this assessment be scored? (rubric, answer
key) How could the results be presented in chart form?
How would design a data analysis chart for your assessment?
How could you quantify the results? What specific skills could you pull out to report? How could you show how each student scored?
Preparing for Analysis

Individual Teacher Analysis

Grade Level or Team Level Analysis Meeting
Analysis
22
The process of identifying patterns of strengths and weaknesses as well standards (or elements of standards) that need to be addressed in upcoming instruction
(Steps for each type of analysis will be part of the next DDI session on Oct 21.)

Handout pg.8
Identify specific needs (whole class, small groups, & individual)
Brainstorm strategies & instructional approaches to target specific areas
Share what has worked in the past
Create new ideas together
Develop targeted, instructional action plans to address the identified areas

25
Sample: Students to wrote an argument paper. Upon analysis of the
results, 20% of students have thesis statements, 65% of students are using supporting evidence from the text, and 95% of students are using paragraphing
Designing an Instructional Action Plan
26
What do all students need? What do some students need? What do a few students need?
Discuss what you would put in an instructional action plan to address these needs found from the analysis.
(See sample planning guide on pg. 18) .
What do you do with the information you gained from the analysis?
What will administrators and teachers need in order to be successful with action?

Process improvement is valued by all
Data Driven Culture
30
All members believe that all students can learn
Norms and protocols are in place for data analysis and action planning with all teams
On-going professional development to support:
* the development of assessments * the scoring of assessments * the analysis of data * the development of action plans * the on-going refining of instructional practice needed to meet the needs of all students

What does a team working on data driven instruction look and sound like?
31Handout pg.13
Looks like Sounds like
Meet every Tuesday and Thursday to review the next assessment or to review the results of the last assessment, etc. (DDI cycle)
Design action plans together
Use an agreed upon protocol for looking a student work
Record keeping that includes student achievement, instructional strategies developed, etc.
What does a team working on DDI look and sound like?
32
“I am trying to figure out what I can do in my next unit to help John and Joe understand why it is important to cross multiply first before…”
“67% of my students have mastered identifying the main idea. By the end of this next unit, I am hoping to be at 100%.”
“I am wondering about…could you give me some thoughts or suggestions?”
What are the beliefs, values, and practices present within a Data Driven Instruction model?

Develop a data driven instruction implementation calendar that includes time for:
Assessment development
Assessment administration
Assessment scoring
Assessment analysis (one-on-one & team)
Instructional action plan development
On-going PD to support each phase of the DDI cycle
Leadership Facilitation:
37Handout pg.15
The principal ensures that scheduled DDI actions occur as planned
Leadership Accountability:
38
The principal monitors the implementation of the instructional action plans by checking in with teachers before/ after classes &/or during mini-observations
The principal determines support needed for successful implementation of the action plans
Handout pg.16
Examples:
Scheduling dates in the spring for the next year (calendar)
Scheduling “sacred” uninterrupted time to be in classrooms talking with teachers about student progress on assessments
