West Virginia Department of Education Mission
The West Virginia Department of Education, in conjunction with the Regional Education Service Agencies and the Office of Performance Audits, will create systemic conditions, processes and structures within the West Virginia public school system that result in (1) all students achieving mastery and beyond and (2) closing the achievement gap among sub-groups of the student population.

Robert HutchinsThe Conflict in Education in a Democratic Society
“Perhaps the greatest idea that America has given the world is education for all. The world is entitled to know whether this idea means that everybody can be educated or simply that everyone must go to school.”

What We Know…
An emerging body of research identifies characteristics of high performing school systems.
These school systems have made significant progress in bringing all students to mastery and in closing the achievement gap.
These systems share characteristics described in The West Virginia Framework for High Performing Schools.

TWO Major Tasks…TWO Major Tasks…
1. Implement strategies to “catch up” students who are currently behind.
2. Build the systems that will prevent students from falling behind in the future.

Curriculum Pillar
“Development of a curriculum monitoring process such as Classroom Walkthroughs to
gather information for continuous improvement”
![Page 9: West Virginia Achieves Professional Development Series](https://reader036.vdocuments.mx/reader036/viewer/2022062723/56813b9a550346895da4cefb/html5/thumbnails/9.jpg)
Instruction Pillar“Use of an
instructional monitoring
system such as walkthroughs that collects data for
school and district improvement,
teacher support, and school
improvement.”
![Page 10: West Virginia Achieves Professional Development Series](https://reader036.vdocuments.mx/reader036/viewer/2022062723/56813b9a550346895da4cefb/html5/thumbnails/10.jpg)
School Effectiveness Pillar
“…a consistent district-wide school improvement process that includes: a district monitoring system that requires continuous progress and accountability for results as outlined in the school and district plans.”
![Page 11: West Virginia Achieves Professional Development Series](https://reader036.vdocuments.mx/reader036/viewer/2022062723/56813b9a550346895da4cefb/html5/thumbnails/11.jpg)
Student/Parent Support Pillar“ A data-based system for monitoring
student success and targeting interventions.”

Essential Essential QuestionQuestion
How is “Monitoring” KEY to improving student learning
for ALL and closing the achievement gap?
![Page 13: West Virginia Achieves Professional Development Series](https://reader036.vdocuments.mx/reader036/viewer/2022062723/56813b9a550346895da4cefb/html5/thumbnails/13.jpg)
FOCUS
1. WHAT monitoring is and is not..
2. WHY monitoring is important…
3. HOW monitoring can realistically be implemented
![Page 14: West Virginia Achieves Professional Development Series](https://reader036.vdocuments.mx/reader036/viewer/2022062723/56813b9a550346895da4cefb/html5/thumbnails/14.jpg)
Research on High Performing School Systems
Schools CAN make a difference.
Teachers CAN make a difference.
High yield, research based instructional strategies and practices CAN make a difference.
![Page 15: West Virginia Achieves Professional Development Series](https://reader036.vdocuments.mx/reader036/viewer/2022062723/56813b9a550346895da4cefb/html5/thumbnails/15.jpg)
Where there is one, there can be more than
one!

(P + QT + I = ISA)Professionalism + Quality Training + Implementation +
Improved Student Achievement?
(P + QT + I (CPQ) + M = ISA)Professionalism + Quality Training + Implementation Consistently,
Pervasively, and with Quality + Monitoring = Improved Student Achievement?
YES!!!

“Monitoring” is the critical KEY
to unlocking the door to increased student achievement!

HOW CAN WE…..HOW CAN WE….. KNOWKNOW that effective instruction is taking
place?
KNOWKNOW what is going well, what is not going well, and what is needed to improve?
ASSUREASSURE that these high yield strategies and practices are being implemented?
![Page 20: West Virginia Achieves Professional Development Series](https://reader036.vdocuments.mx/reader036/viewer/2022062723/56813b9a550346895da4cefb/html5/thumbnails/20.jpg)
THE ANSWER IS….THE ANSWER IS….
a process that gathers information, analyzes the information, provides feedback to the teacher(s), and results in a plan of action for continuous improvement…

STOP1. In groups of 3 – 4, determine:
*The similarities of the members of your group *The differences of the members of your group
2. Each group be prepared to share.
![Page 22: West Virginia Achieves Professional Development Series](https://reader036.vdocuments.mx/reader036/viewer/2022062723/56813b9a550346895da4cefb/html5/thumbnails/22.jpg)
MONITORING VS.
EVALUATION
Read the selected excerpts on monitoring and, in your groups, list the ways monitoring is:
1. SIMILAR to evaluation, and
2. DIFFERENT from evaluation
![Page 23: West Virginia Achieves Professional Development Series](https://reader036.vdocuments.mx/reader036/viewer/2022062723/56813b9a550346895da4cefb/html5/thumbnails/23.jpg)
Similarities of Monitoring and Evaluation
Provide formative and on-going assessment Gather data to see what is and isn’t working Encourage reflection on data Measure progress Support and assistance Use a criteria Focus on improvement Encourage self-assessment Emphasize results Give feedback Involve some type of observation Promote action Have a goal to improve student achievement Results in school improvement
![Page 24: West Virginia Achieves Professional Development Series](https://reader036.vdocuments.mx/reader036/viewer/2022062723/56813b9a550346895da4cefb/html5/thumbnails/24.jpg)

the gathering of data to see what is working, what isn’t, and what is needed to improve.

STOP
Individually create a metaphor (simile) that completes this sentence:
“Monitoring is like ______because ________.”
![Page 27: West Virginia Achieves Professional Development Series](https://reader036.vdocuments.mx/reader036/viewer/2022062723/56813b9a550346895da4cefb/html5/thumbnails/27.jpg)
WHY do we monitor?
“When we do the best that we can, we never know what miracle is
wrought in our life, or in the life of
another.”
-Helen Keller
![Page 28: West Virginia Achieves Professional Development Series](https://reader036.vdocuments.mx/reader036/viewer/2022062723/56813b9a550346895da4cefb/html5/thumbnails/28.jpg)
“What gets measured gets done.”
Schools are no exception.
Exemplary practices that must “get done” must be monitored and measured.
All high performing school systems have a systemic process for monitoring the implementation of practices–
Consistently – Pervasively - Quality
![Page 29: West Virginia Achieves Professional Development Series](https://reader036.vdocuments.mx/reader036/viewer/2022062723/56813b9a550346895da4cefb/html5/thumbnails/29.jpg)
“CPQ”
![Page 30: West Virginia Achieves Professional Development Series](https://reader036.vdocuments.mx/reader036/viewer/2022062723/56813b9a550346895da4cefb/html5/thumbnails/30.jpg)
MonitoringMonitoring Leads to unity of purpose Everyone is working to find solutions The focus is on “quality” rather than “just doing it” Continuous improvement for teachers as well as
students is the expectation
Finding effective ways to gather data on how well implementation of a particular initiative is taking place in a school will
make the difference between:
being adequate or exemplary…
being mediocre or excellent!
![Page 31: West Virginia Achieves Professional Development Series](https://reader036.vdocuments.mx/reader036/viewer/2022062723/56813b9a550346895da4cefb/html5/thumbnails/31.jpg)
Now that we know
WHAT monitoring is and is not…
WHY monitoring is important to student achievement….
The next question is:
HOWHOW do we begin the monitoring process?
![Page 32: West Virginia Achieves Professional Development Series](https://reader036.vdocuments.mx/reader036/viewer/2022062723/56813b9a550346895da4cefb/html5/thumbnails/32.jpg)
