Identify a Strategy for Improvement

After identifying promising drivers for change, teams will likely need to identify specific practices, programs, or policies capable of enacting or manifesting those drivers. Fortunately, teams rarely have to completely reinvent the wheel - education research can often point us to viable solutions backed by evidence. Below, we link to common sources of evidence-based solutions. 

While research is able to point teams toward solutions that CAN work in their contexts, there is often substantial work to be done in adapting those solutions to context and making them work well. User-centered design principles and tools can help teams to gather valuable feedback from stakeholders and modify promising practices in ways that enable more effective implementation.
