Abstract: Many schools are becoming more effective at collecting data around teaching practices and teaching effectiveness. They have adopted the idea that what gets measured gets done; however, behavior analysts challenge this concept and retort, “what gets measured increases the likelihood of things getting done”. Now that schools have this plethora of data, Organizational Behavior Management (OBM) practitioners are poised to come in and help schools turn these data into action. School teams often understand how to arrange contingencies to expedite learning with students but have not historically utilized this same science to improve teacher performance. This presentation will describe a case study of an organizational-level feedback procedure implemented at the district level to improve instruction to students receiving special education services. Evidence-based feedback strategies will be shared with participants and additional approaches from the OBM literature will be described to make improvements to future procedures. Participants will leave with a self-monitoring tool and a list of coaching strategies that can be implemented when they return to their school. |
