Ed Services Honeycomb
We wanted to take a moment to share our constellation that will be our focus for the year from the Ed Services Department. Please note (as is our philosophy for personalized learning), this is not necessarily your constellation for the year. Our SIP goals and action plans will be discussed in a later post, but looking at our 2 focus cells, we want to continue to provide tailored feedback to our students. And the best way to do so is to have a deep understanding of our learners. Our district's philosophy is to provide opportunities to all of our learners to access information in a manner that is best for them. The professional development our office will be providing this year will focus on each of the yellow cells above. These connect what we know are research-based instructional practices according to John Hattie. Some of the highest indicators of student success are reflected in our work with proficiency tables (ex: teacher clarity- 0.75; feedback- 0.7; learning goals- 0.68). Our Learner Profile goal is supported in his research as well (ex: self-efficacy- 0.92; classroom discussion 0.82; reflection- 0.75; metacognition- 0.6) There is even more research to support our instructional honeycomb cells as well- self-reported grades (1.33) mastery grades (0.57), practice testing (0.54) all tie into our strategic plan and our work for this year!
