IDM in a nutshell…
The Instructional Decision Making (IDM) process focuses on instruction by using data regarding students’ responses to instruction to guide future educational decisions.
All students require curriculum that is guaranteed, viable, rigorous, and relevant.
IDM in a nutshell…
To meet the needs of all students, instructional practices within the general education setting should include differentiation, appropriate resources, supplemental and intensive instruction, and changing the pace.

IDM in a nutshell…
Accurate reliable assessment data is required to make good instructional decisions.
TIER I: CoreTIER 1 is comprised of
three elements:• Core (reading)
program• Benchmark testing of
students to determine instructional needs at least three times a year
• Ongoing professional development
TIER II: Supplemental• Tier II is small-group
supplemental instruction in addition to the time allotted for core (reading) instruction.
• Tier II includes programs, strategies, and procedures designed and employed to supplement, enhance, and support Tier I.
TIER III: Intensive
• TIER III is intensive, strategic, supplemental instruction specifically designed and customized small-group or 1:1 (reading) instruction that is extended beyond the time allocated for Tier I and Tier II.

What is the essence of IDM? Is it only for the struggling learners? What particular “Guiding Principles” stand
out to you?
Curriculum
“The IDM process begins with each student having access to, as well as the opportunity to demonstrate mastery of, a guaranteed and viable curriculum which demonstrates rigor and relevance.”
Curriculum
Quality Indicators Guaranteed Viable Implemented with rigor and relevance Evidence based Sufficiently differentiated Reviewed regularly
Instruction
“Students move from one cycle of instruction to another as indicated by the data as performance is monitored. In this fluid and flexible process, each student receives instruction to address his/her unique learning needs.”
Core cycle• The district adopted
comprehensive curriculum
• Provided for all students
• Ongoing data collection and analysis of data - Screening, diagnostic and formative evaluations occur
• Research based/evidence based strategies and a positive learning environment
Core
Rigorous
Relevant
Viable
Supplemental cycle• Instruction that is available for
highly proficient or struggling learners.
• Provided to smaller groups of students with similar needs
• Research based/evidence based strategies and a positive learning environment
• Targeted instruction that extends the core and provides more intensity, immediacy of feedback, and consistency of support in identified area
• Continuous data analysis
Supplemental
Intensive cycle• Instruction that is available for
very highly proficient or struggling learners
• Provided to individuals or small groups of students with similar needs
• Research based/evidence based strategies and a positive learning environment
• Provides more time, intensity, practice and immediacy of feedback than within the supplemental cycle
• Continual analysis of data
Intensive
Read and Discuss
What are key elements you see that distinguish core, supplemental, and intensive?
What instructional pieces do you currently have in place in your school?
Assessment
“Assessment data are gathered on a regular basis and each student’s response to instruction and curriculum is evaluated in order to make informed instructional and curricular decisions. “
Screening
How is each student responding to instruction?
Is the instruction effective?
Which students may need additional assessments?
Screening: Includes a method of collecting data for the purpose of identifying low and high-performing students at risk for not having their needs met.

Diagnostic Assessment
What are the specific concerns?
What targeted instruction does the student need?
Diagnostic: Involves gathering information from multiple sources to determine why the students are not benefiting from core due to advanced or deficit learning needs
Formative Assessments
• Is the student making progress compared to self, peers and/or standard ?
• What instructional adjustments are needed?
Formative: Frequent, ongoing data that guides instruction
Read and Discuss
What are key elements you see that distinguish screening, diagnostic, and formative?
What assessments do you regularly use within your classroom? Within
your school?
System
“All teaching and learning occurs within a system. Characteristics of that system can either enhance or detract from the overall success of any educational effort.”

Quality Indicators Administrator support and involvement Distributed leadership Professional Development Technical Assistance Parental Involvement Evaluation
Prof. Development
“The fundamental tenet of the professional development model is that student need will drive decision making, and student learning will form the basis on which professional development is judged.”
The Iowa Professional Development Model 2002
1. What do data tell us about our student learning needs?
2. What do/will we do to meet student learning needs?
3. How do/will we know student learning has changed?
4. How will we evaluate our programs and services to ensure improved student learning?
CSIP Constant Conversation Questions
SINA
“When the audit and diagnosis phase is completed and recognizes the need of the building/district, the IDM model becomes an important part of the design, implementation and evaluation.”
-- Lou HowellDE SINA Lead
Iowa Teaching Standards
#1 Enhance academic performance #2 Content knowledge#3 Planning and preparation#4 Deliver instruction for multiple
learning needs#5 Monitor student learning #6 Classroom management#7 Professional development#8 District requirements
Reading First/Every Child Reads (ECR)
“The components of continuous staff development, continuous assessment of student performance and implementation, and focus on instruction provide the foundation for school improvement. Without these three components in place, the likelihood of making significant, positive, sustainable changes in student achievement is lessened.”
-- ECR document
