  1. Using the Identification, Interventions and Monitoring Tool (IIM) for Instructional Decisions

  2. Agenda • The Practice of TA01-03 • Completing the Interactive Achievement Item Analysis or similar activity to identify tier 2 and 3 students (Students of Concern) • Using the Identification, Interventions and Monitoring (IIM) Tool • Planning for interventions

  3. Purpose • Joy of Teaching and Learning • Delivering instruction and seeing students learn • Discussing problems of practice (students struggling with content or skills) and finding and implementing solutions with other teachers • Differentiating our instruction and seeing the results • Sending students to the next grade or college/career with the skills and knowledge to be successful • Working with one child who has struggled and helping him/her to succeed

  4. Indicators of Effective Practice-Required (ES and MS)

  5. Indicators of Effective Practice -Areas for Self Assessment (ES and MS)

  6. Indicators of Effective Practice-Required (HS)

  7. Indicators of Effective Practice -Areas for Self Assessment (HS)

  8. When this objective is fully implemented, the school will conduct quarterly grade level data sessions, using information from a variety of sources to identify students in need of academic and behavioral interventions. The process for identifying at-risk students will include math, reading, social studies, science, ELL, SPED and other teachers/staff to ensure that the academic and behavioral needs of all students are being considered.   The IIM tool will identify students by tier based upon criteria determined by content experts. The IIM tool enables schools to download data or view charts.

  9. When this objective is fully implemented, the school will conduct quarterly meetings to identify and monitor all students who are at risk of failing or in need of targeted academic and behavioral interventions. Students will be assigned to interventions that are aligned to students’ targeted group or individual needs (Tiers 2 or 3) as determined by collected data. The interventions and strategies will be based on research with identified supporting documents. The interventions and strategies will include recommendations on frequency and duration.

  10. Find the Bright Spots • Are certain teachers producing great results in the standard or skill in their class? • What did they do in their classroom? • Was there something different about their instruction (planning/activity, differentiation, etc.)? • What can we learn from them? • Are we experiencing success in certain standards? • Why are we successful in those areas? • How can we expand those strategies to other areas?

  11. Using the Identification, Intervention and Monitoring Tool • The Home Page View • View by year • View by quarter/term • View by grade or instructor • Active or inactive status • Search for individual students • The Student View • Demographic information • Assessment information • Behavior information • Student Report • Summary of student and intervention information • Charts • Visual representation of tier placements

  12. The Home Page View

  13. The Student View

  14. Student Report

  15. The Notes Field • Background information on the student (behavior in the classroom, mannerisms, tendencies, academic strengths and areas for improvement, behavior, etc.) • Insights from the classroom teachers and specialists about the student • Other assessment results (classwork, formative assessments) • Interactions with parents and family • The notes field enables us to have a history of discussions and supports for the student

  16. Charts

  17. Activity-Planning for Interventions • Transfer the data from the Item Analysis worksheet into the student view in the IIM. • Review and update the tier placements. • Enter the interventions and link to provider, intervention and standard. • Go to Interventions Report view and export to Excel.

  18. Activity-Planning for Interventions Questions: • To what extent are we able to meet the needs of tier 2 and 3 students in our core instruction? • When do we need to plan for interventions outside of the regular day? • Read the Wise Way on TA01-03.

  19. Planning for Interventions • After identifying the tier 2 and 3 students and the needed interventions by provider, intervention and standard, begin planning for interventions. • Core instruction • Resource time • Before and after school

  20. Planning for Interventions • Complete the planning for interventions activity with a grade level or content area CLT.

  21. When this objective is fully implemented, the school will utilize data to monitor students’ progress with the implemented academic and/or behavioral tiered intervention(s) program. The data will identify the effectiveness or lack of effectiveness of the interventions(s) implemented and whether or not the students are making gains towards established goals. The process will include guidance for determining when students should receive different intervention(s) or level of service or exit the program.

  22. Previous Questions/Discussions about IIM • SOL data is NOT factored into the tier placements. • Alternate versions of SOLs are not currently included but this practice is being reconsidered. • AIMSWEB-MCOMP has been added and is being used for tier placements for math.

  23. Previous Questions/Discussions about IIM • Central office and school staff must work together to maintain the quality of the data. Central office loads the data and checks for errors. The schools inform central office when there are discrepancies (student name, ID and data issue). • Interactive Achievement assessments (quarterly and Student Growth) are rigorous. Tier 2 students may be trending towards proficiency. Perhaps Tier 3 students should be our focus?

  24. Yearly Schedule for IIM • Tier placements are updated as new data becomes available. • The main tier placements occur each quarter. • Interventions can be provided at the beginning and middle of each quarter based on need.

  25. Supporting Resources for IIM These resources can be found under the School Improvement (Indistar, IIM) link under the “Staff” tab on the LCPS website: • Link to IIM • TA01-03 Best Practices for Identifying, Intervening and Monitoring • Tier Chart Calculations
