Pre Planning: Identification of Need1. Develop/Review Student Learning Expectations2. Examine alignment of learning expectations with assessments3. Review assessment data4. Identify areas of need based on assessment
Plan:1. Describe the current process for addressing the identified area of need
(flow chart) 2. Review data to determine baseline performance in the specific area
identified (Run Chart/Pareto Diagram)3. Identify potential root causes contributing to the identified area of need (Cause & Effect Diagram, 5 Why’s, Relations Diagram)4. Study research-based best practice/improvement theory addressing areas
of need
DO1. Plan for implementation of improvement theory (Force Field Analysis, Action Plan)2. Implement research-based best practices improvement theory based on root causes according to the Action Plan3. Monitor the implementation of research-based best practice/improvement theory to insure integrity and fidelity4. Assess student learning
Study:1. Examine student assessment results (compare to baseline)2. Assess the impact of research-based best practice/improvement theory on
student achievement
Act:1. Standardize the implementation of research-based best practice (improvement theory) that improved student learning (revise the flow chart to reflect changes made to the system)2. If improvement theory was unsuccessful continue the PDSA cycle (try another improvement theory based on the next identified root causes)

Root Cause Identified
• Once root cause is identified… it is time to select a research-based improvement theory
• Consult books, articles, web sites, Curriculum Facilitators and other resources

Research Based Strategies• Research Based Strategies
• NCTM (National Council of Teachers of Mathematics)– Research & Standards
• Elementary and Middle School Mathematics– By John A Van De Walle– Professor Emeritus, Virginia Commonwealth
University, Mathematics Education Consultant
Implement the Improvement Theory
• If we… model and practice with contextual estimation problems a minimum of 30 minutes a week
• Then we…. will see an increase in the correct application of estimation skills
• As measured… by the weekly estimation check tests
Implement the Improvement Theory - Key Tools
Force field Analysis • Driving & Restraining
Forces• When opposing forces are
equal no change can occur.
• Driving forces must be stronger than restraining.
• For a desired change, discuss ways to diminish or eliminate the restraining forces.
Force Field Analysis
Desired Change:
Driving Forces
Restraining Forces

All December 5th
Begin Improvement Theory
Resume Check tests
Check Everyday Mathematics for contextual estimation problems
Look through Math Boxes for the possiblity of using with a little alteration
Create a bank of contextual application estimation problems
Develop to propose time schedule to include 30 minutes of practice per week for purposes of discussion
SMART Goal: During the 06-07 school year, students will accurately answer application estimation check test questions correctly 95% of the time.
