Arranging for accurate, sustained, & generalized local implementation of evidence-based solution

Establishing systems level infrastructure to support scaled implementation of evidence-based solution

3. Implementation progresses through phases

1. Exploration• Need, priority, agreements, resources, & outcomes

2. Demonstration• Local adoption & implementation with fidelity, outcome

documentation, & visibility

3. Elaboration• Adapted, accurate, & documented replication,

outcomes, & leadership support

4. Continuous Regeneration• Systems adoption, implementation capacity, durability,

planned scale-up, progress monitoring, & efficiency adaptations.

4. Sustainable Implementation requires continuous regeneration

5. Implementation success based on multiple criteria

4 Main Data Concerns

Student outcomes

Practice selection

Practice implementation

Progress monitoring & systems integration

Has convincing functional relationship been documented experimentally between practice & desired outcome?

Has effectiveness of practice been replicated across similar populations &contexts?

Has practice been implemented effectively, accurately, efficiently, &durably by real or local users?

Does practice have sufficient scope to affect multiple educational outcomes?

Are measurable benchmarks specified to assess student outcomes?

Do local implementers consider practice to have high social & educational acceptability & value?

Is practice described w/ sufficient detail for high implementation accuracy & fluency?

Are systems specified for quality professional development & sustained & scalable implementation

6. Implementation based on scalable evidence-based practices Horner, 2010

Horner, R. H., Sugai, G., & Anderson, C. M. (in press). Examining the evidence base for school-wide positive behavior support. Focus on Exceptionality.

5.Targeted social skills & self-management instruction

6. Individualized instructional & curricular accommodations

NONCLASSROOM1.Positive expectations & routines taught & encouraged

2.Active supervision by all staff (Scan, move, interact)

3.Precorrections & reminders

4.Positive reinforcement

FAMILY ENGAGEMENT1.Continuum of positive behavior support for all families

2.Frequent, regular positive contacts, communications, & acknowledgements

3.Formal & active participation & involvement as equal partner

4.Access to system of integrated school & community resources

7. Practices must be implemented with integrity Sanetti & Kratochwill, 2009

Is practice being implemented as designed & tested?

Are individual practice components emphasized & implemented as recommended?

Can practice be modified based on local data & context without affecting intended outcomes?

Are implementation integrity procedures & tools available?

Are implementation ceilings &/or floors for maximizing practice outcomes recommended by developers?

Is amount of implementation adaptation or change that can be made w/o affecting outcomes?

Are procedures for implementers to receive implementation feedback on regular basis?

Are adaptations for accommodating context factors (e.g., language, cultural/ethnic customs, community values) available?

8. Policy & practice inform each other Fixsen & Blase, 2007

9. Implementation is systemic

Establish a visible, effective, efficient, & functional leadership team.

Review existing information/data.

Analyze, describe, & prioritize issue w/in context.

Specify measurable outcome that is related directly to issue & context..

Select evidence-based practice to achieve specified outcome.

Provide supports for accurate adoption & sustained implementation.

Monitor practice implementation & progress toward outcome.

Modify practice implementation based on analysis of progress data.
