  1. Milwaukee Mathematics Partnership School Based Partnerships: Using Social Network Analysis to Measure Progress Towards Distributed Leadership Carl Hanssen Hanssen Consulting, LLC DeAnn Huinker University of Wisconsin-Milwaukee MSP Learning Network Conference Washington, DC January 2008

  2. Agenda • Context • Methods • Results • Conclusions

  3. Evaluation Goals • Help the MMP better serve its constituents and improve its effectiveness • Serve the broader mathematics education community through documentation and dissemination of MMP activities

  4. Student Achievement Distal Outcomes Classroom Practice Teacher Content & Pedagogical Knowledge Proximal Outcomes Teacher Involvement Learning Team Effort School Buy-in MMP Activities New Courses Math Faculty Involvement District Buy-in UWM Buy-In MATC Buy-In MPA Ownership MMP Evaluation Logic Model

  5. Focus for this study Student Achievement Classroom Practice Teacher Involvement Distributed Leadership Learning Team Efforts School Buy-in

  6. Method • 20 Schools from 2006 & 2007 • Purposefully selected for diversity in • School Type • Geography • Student Achievement • MMP Involvement

  7. SNA Survey • Open survey approach • Teachers & administrators • Provide names of individuals with whom you communicated with about mathematics • Demographics • Other data • School staff lists • Student achievement resultsin terms of % proficient

  8. Maps identify MTL MTS Teachers Principal Literacy Coach Others in school Others outside Statistics Network density (%) In-Degree(z-score) Analysis

  19. Distributed Leadership &Student Achievement This is the same school 2 years in a row!

  20. Overall Conclusions • There is support for the argument that schools that have more fully adopted MMP principles are demonstrating stronger outcomes — distributed leadership is one manifestation of MMP adoption. • Creating distributed leadership in a school takes time—and communication is critical • There is tremendous variabilityacross MPS in the extent to which schools have adopted MMPprinciples and ideas

  21. Conclusion • No single factor—e.g., distributed leadership, teacher MKT, learning team performance—is sufficient for success, but all may be necessary • Schools that are performing well do many of the things MMP promotes well, andrealize synergy between manyof these activities and principles
