The presentation reviews information on evidence-based strategies and practices to support improvement in mathematics. Helpful handouts are included.

The presentation focuses on the key aspects of planning for evaluation of the SSIP. Highlighted information includes the purpose of evaluation, setting the state for evaluation, the importance of focusing on outcomes, evaluation logic, and planning. Helpful handouts are included.

Selection of a cohort, or Transformation Zone, for SSIP implementation is a principle consideration in developing an action plan. The presentation addresses variables that states should considered in making those decisions and provides information on methods to determine readiness and eliciting involvement of an LEA/EIS.

The presentation presents an overview on developing an infrastructure that supports implementation, scale-up, and sustainability of effective practices and highlights core components of implementation. Highlighted components include: Implementation Stages, Implementation Drivers, Implementation Teams, Usable Interventions, and Improvement Cycles.

The presentation provides a self-assessment rubric that can help states and local districts view their school/district programs and practices with an "equity" lens and help states and LEAs understand the reasons for discrepancies in outcomes between certain groups of students. Helpful handouts are included.

The presentation focuses on how to use high quality data to support effective implementation. Information highlights informed use of data for decision making and improvement and the conditions under which high-quality data can make the most difference.

The information provides guidance on developing an evaluation plan by differentiating implementation and impact. Topics addressed include translating theory of action into specific evaluation questions and possible formative and summative measures for evaluation. Helpful handouts are included.
