I was really excited about using the CARE Model in planning my action research plan. It felt very natural to respond to the questions of key points of this planning tool and thought I would share it with you...
Tool 8.1 CARE Model: Planning Tool
Identify Concerns that must change (look to
the future)
1.
Struggling students in all socio-economic levels must be supported for
success.
2.
Adoption of technology is important in the lives of 21st
century students.
3.
Success in Math and Science is important if the United States wants to
remain competitive in a global market.
Identify Affirmations that must be sustained
(look to the present)
1. JDS maintains a Culture of Excellence on its campus.
2.
Teachers have a drive for all students to succeed.
3. Once
a student has been identified as struggling, most teachers want to work with
students to help them be successful.
SMART Recommendations that must be
implemented:
(Specific, Measurable, Attainable, Relevant,
Timely)
1.
Compass Learning is designed to add to the success of our Culture of
Excellence.
2.
Improvement is demonstrable through student progress monitoring.
3. With
lab support, not relying on added teacher time, or lack of support at home,
students can attain success.
4.
Culture of Excellence means we need to focus on strugglers to help them
reach excellence too.
5.
Compass Learning is an available tool and an opportunity to change which
can be monitored weekly for student success.
EVALUATE – Specifically and Often)
1.
Weekly reports are generated from the Compass Learning reporting student
progress.
2.
Teacher surveys regarding progress of students in class would
substantiate success of Learning Lab.
3. Outcome on state assessment would be an
additional indicator of success.
