It’s Sort of Like the Old Days ofFamily Vacation…
(When You Got Lost)
![Page 8: Lighting our path to stellar learning Center on Innovation & Improvement Indistar](https://reader030.vdocuments.mx/reader030/viewer/2022032607/56649ebb5503460f94bc2ea4/html5/thumbnails/8.jpg)
You Knew Where You Wanted to Go
But You Weren’t Quite Sure How to Get There (although everybody had an idea)
![Page 9: Lighting our path to stellar learning Center on Innovation & Improvement Indistar](https://reader030.vdocuments.mx/reader030/viewer/2022032607/56649ebb5503460f94bc2ea4/html5/thumbnails/9.jpg)

A Global Positioning System (GPS)
Shows where you are relative to your destination
Provides detailed routes for reaching it
Adjusts to variations and even accommodates diversions along the way
But the destination remains constant.

It’s a Keep-Moving Navigational Tool
That Guides Everybody in the Same Direction

Like a GPS, Indistar:
Shows where you are relative to your destination
Provides detailed routes for reaching it
Adjusts to variations and even accommodates diversions along the way
But the destination remains constant.
![Page 22: Lighting our path to stellar learning Center on Innovation & Improvement Indistar](https://reader030.vdocuments.mx/reader030/viewer/2022032607/56649ebb5503460f94bc2ea4/html5/thumbnails/22.jpg)
Indistar Provides a Structure for Improving Performance
(With Plenty of “How” Flexibility)
![Page 23: Lighting our path to stellar learning Center on Innovation & Improvement Indistar](https://reader030.vdocuments.mx/reader030/viewer/2022032607/56649ebb5503460f94bc2ea4/html5/thumbnails/23.jpg)
The Structure is Built Using Success Indicators
The Research and Evidence of What Works in School Improvement
![Page 24: Lighting our path to stellar learning Center on Innovation & Improvement Indistar](https://reader030.vdocuments.mx/reader030/viewer/2022032607/56649ebb5503460f94bc2ea4/html5/thumbnails/24.jpg)
We’ve Collected, Analyzed, and Organized the Research So that Your Time Can Be Spent Applying It
(And Indistar Guides You Through Application, Too)
![Page 25: Lighting our path to stellar learning Center on Innovation & Improvement Indistar](https://reader030.vdocuments.mx/reader030/viewer/2022032607/56649ebb5503460f94bc2ea4/html5/thumbnails/25.jpg)
Before We Go Any Further
Vocabulary Lesson Number One (Because without a shared vocabulary, not even technology can help)
![Page 26: Lighting our path to stellar learning Center on Innovation & Improvement Indistar](https://reader030.vdocuments.mx/reader030/viewer/2022032607/56649ebb5503460f94bc2ea4/html5/thumbnails/26.jpg)
in·di·ca·tor [in-di-key-ter]noun
1. A pointer or a gauge for assessing progress toward the destination

But Indistar Doesn’t JUST Tell You
Whether or Not You’re On the Right Track
![Page 29: Lighting our path to stellar learning Center on Innovation & Improvement Indistar](https://reader030.vdocuments.mx/reader030/viewer/2022032607/56649ebb5503460f94bc2ea4/html5/thumbnails/29.jpg)
It Keeps You MOVING On It
(PS….Indistar is Also Designed to Build and Sustain Momentum
![Page 30: Lighting our path to stellar learning Center on Innovation & Improvement Indistar](https://reader030.vdocuments.mx/reader030/viewer/2022032607/56649ebb5503460f94bc2ea4/html5/thumbnails/30.jpg)
So Where Is It Guiding Us? What is the Destination, Exactly?
The Specifics Will Vary According to the Individual Needs and Circumstances of Each State, Each District, and Each School
![Page 31: Lighting our path to stellar learning Center on Innovation & Improvement Indistar](https://reader030.vdocuments.mx/reader030/viewer/2022032607/56649ebb5503460f94bc2ea4/html5/thumbnails/31.jpg)

Is Big Lasting Improvement in Teaching and Learning
But Results Won’t Improve Unless Performance Improves

Then the Decision is Whether To
Use every indicator or selected indicators
