Objectives for Today
UnderstandUnderstand the challenges schools and district face when implementing the Florida Standards effectively.
LearnLearn about the Pilot Florida Implementation Network and its work to ensure students and teachers are engaged in rigorous, worthwhile learning.

The Florida Standards provide the best opportunity for districts to change course and prepare all students to be successful in college, career and life.
“Where a student lives should not determine educational expectations. As educational leaders, we need to assure the public that we understand the
challenges students face after graduation and that we are preparing them for college and the work place. College and career ready standards must be a part of
K-12 education.”–Jayne Ellspermann, Principal, Westport High School, Ocala, FL

Let’s examine an ELA assignment from a 4th grade classroom—what is being required of this student?
![Page 15: Education Works Virtual Forum: Challenges of …...2016/09/09 · Education Works Virtual Forum: Challenges of Implementing Florida Standards Tuesday, September 13, 2016 Presented](https://reader033.vdocuments.us/reader033/viewer/2022042403/5f1796f656b0391cd47dfaf8/html5/thumbnails/15.jpg)
/ 15
Now compare this with a sample task from a different 4th grade classroom. What do you notice?
![Page 16: Education Works Virtual Forum: Challenges of …...2016/09/09 · Education Works Virtual Forum: Challenges of Implementing Florida Standards Tuesday, September 13, 2016 Presented](https://reader033.vdocuments.us/reader033/viewer/2022042403/5f1796f656b0391cd47dfaf8/html5/thumbnails/16.jpg)

Our comprehensive diagnostics set out to answer one core question:
To what extent are current practices at the classroom, school and
district levels supporting or hindering
efforts to ensure rigorous, standards-
aligned instruction for all students?
![Page 17: Education Works Virtual Forum: Challenges of …...2016/09/09 · Education Works Virtual Forum: Challenges of Implementing Florida Standards Tuesday, September 13, 2016 Presented](https://reader033.vdocuments.us/reader033/viewer/2022042403/5f1796f656b0391cd47dfaf8/html5/thumbnails/17.jpg)

DIAGNOSTIC FINDINGS
1 Florida teachers are not yet adjusting their instructional practices to meet the demands of the Florida Standards.
2 Teacher and leader confidence in their ability to teach the Florida Standards doesn’t match up with reality observed at schools.
3 Districts lack a clear definition of excellent instruction and a strategy toachieve it.
4Teacher instructional materials, evaluations and professional development opportunities are not well-aligned, and do not help teachers raise the rigor of their instruction.

Despite the perception that teachers had made the instructional shifts required of the new standards, few lessons reflected those changes.

Students, while often meeting the expectations of the tasks in front of then, are often not working on sufficiently rigorous assignments.

Most students meet expectations for their assignment, but the lack of rigor in tasks means students aren’t meeting the expectation of the standards.

The Education Trust, a national non-profit advocacy organization, recently released a report with similar findings about student tasks.
Key Findings:
• Overall, only about 5% of assignments fell into the high range on the assignment analysis rubric
• Only 38% of assignments were aligned with a grade-appropriate standard
• Only 55% of assignments were connected with a text
• Only 16% of assignments required students to use a text for citing evidence a support for a position or claim
• Only 4% of all assignments reviewed pushed student thinking to higher levels

Why is this? Generally, systems and priorities that support effective teaching and learning are not aligned, resulting in inconsistent support.
Teachers delivering instruction to students
Instructional materials of varying
quality
Feedback from Teacher evaluation that is
inconsistent and not focused on critical
instructional shifts
Support from Professional
development not aligned to teacher need
or driven by content
Other systems for support with varying
priorities

Central office leaders and staff have a strong understanding of the Florida Standards and shifts that leads to establishing a clear definition of excellent tier I instruction and a plan for engaging school leaders and teachers in this vision.
This definition is used to identify, select, create and curate Florida Standards-aligned instructional materials.
There is a clear plan to support building-level instructional leaders, who have the buy-in and ownership to accurately identify and foster excellent tier I instruction in classrooms, and ensure aligned materials are used effectively.
We’re focusing our work in just a few key areas, based on the network theory of action.
Data and feedback from school and classroom-level implementation assists central office leaders in knowing whether excellent tier I instruction occurs, and informs
continuous improvement.

“…choice of instructional materials can have an impact as large as or
larger than the impact of teacher quality.”
“…improving teacher quality is challenging, expensive, and time-
consuming, making better choices among available instructional materials should be relatively easy, inexpensive, and quick.”
One area of focus is instructional materials. Students learn primarily through interactions with teachers and materials—strong materials affect student learning.

The teacher who is effective, but can not explain concretely and in detail why; may attribute student achievement to being a “natural-born” teacher.

High Impact Teacher Corps
Corps members are teachers who are high impact according to VAM and who teach in D or F schools. The goal of the
High Impact Teacher Corps is first to keep these teachers in their schools – doing good work on behalf of their students.
The second goal of the High Impact Teacher Corps is to support them in having a positive effect on student
outcomes in classrooms that are not their own.
