  1. Indistar: What Next? Indistar Summit April 2013 Richmond, Virginia

  2. The Premise • District and school Leadership Teams will candidly assess their professional practice and chart their course for improvement if given: • Clear expectations. • A structured, continuous process. • Access to resources. • Coaching and feedback. • Most districts can ultimately assume responsibility for supporting, coaching, and monitoring the work of their schools.

  3. Co-Development • Since the beginning, ADI has co-developed Indistar in collaboration with states. • Co-development means all states benefit from each state’s suggestions for system improvement. • Co-development means we are all educators, working together to build tools that enhance our work for the ultimate benefit of students.

  4. Evaluation • 2009-2010: Proof of Concept study in 27 Virginia restructuring schools. • Tracked assessment scores • Edvantia—user satisfaction • 2011-2012: Independent, external evaluation of state implementation. • 2013-2014: Evaluation of effectiveness in school improvement for high-fidelity implementers.
