Table Talk Notes

What questions do you have about EWS?(Hit hard return to create additional bullets.)

What resonates with you as you think about setting up an EWS?

How does the CCSR selection criteria influence your thinking around current or future indicators?

What are the implications of including influencers in an EWS?

If you have an EWS, are there any indicator changes you would make?

If you don’t have any EWS what indicators do you think would be important to include?

How important do you think it is to locally validate indicators for your district/school?

If you were going to locally validate indicators which ones would you choose?

Who/what team(s) do you have right now that makes sense to look at EWI data at the following levels:

School-wide/sub-group?

Grade-level/small-group?

Individual student?

Problem Solving Example

Problem Identification

Looking at the first tab in the Excel® file, what is the overall health of the system? (There are a total of 60 students.Follow steps for Excel® sorting.)

Percentage on-track%

Percentage at-risk%

Percentage off-track%

What is the gap between the desired goal of 80% on-track and the current percentage on-track?

%

Looking at theOff-Track by Indicator tab, what is the percentage on-track by indicator?

  • Attendance%
  • ODR%
  • OSS%
  • ELA%
  • Math%
  • Social Studies%
  • Science%

Is there an indicator that stands out?

What is the gap between that indicator and the desired goal of 80% on-track?

%

Looking at the subgroup (Gender, Race/Ethnicity, SWD, ELL, ED) tabs, does there appear to be a group that is more likely to be off-track?

Gender

If so, which group? / What is the percentage off-track of the group?
Male / %
Female / %
Other (for example: transitioning, transgendered, etc.) / %

Racial/Ethnic Groups

If so, which group? / What is the percentage off-track of the group?
Multi-Racial / %
Asian / %
Black/African American / %
Hispanic/Latino / %
White / %
American Indian or Alaskan Native / %
Native Hawaiian or Pacific Islander / %

SWD — What is the percentage off-track of the group?%

ELL — What is the percentage off-track of the group?%

ED — What is the percentage off-track of the group?%

Is there an indicator that you would prioritize in addressing?

For your selected indicator, are any of the above subgroups more likely to be off-track? If yes, which groups?

Problem Analysis

For your selected indicator and subgroups (if applicable), what ideas do you have about root causes or reasons why more students are off-track for this indicator?How could you gather more information to understand the root causes (i.e., data sources)?

Idea(s) / Data Source(s)

Intervention Design & Implementation

What level makes the most sense for interventions?

Subgroup

Individual

Other, please specify:

What ideas do you have for interventions that would match the root causes?
