Action Planning

Rationale: Research shows that a strategy can help students learn much more at one school if it’s used well, compared to another school where it’s not used correctly. Since many projects have trouble getting done right, it’s important to have clear, practical plans with specific tasks, people in charge, and deadlines.

Learning Intention: Teams will create actionable, goal-oriented implementation plans for the upcoming months and decide how to use implementation data and site visit coaching to support their priorities.

Success Criteria: Teams will know they are successful when they…

• Set goals that match each project objective—data use, collaboration, and evidence-based instruction—connected to their Theory of Change.

• Made clear plans for the next few months with tasks, owners, and deadlines.

• Have found ways to use site visit coaching to help carry out their implementation efforts.
