The Big Question for The Big Question for CEEBE: CEEBE:
What needs to happen for local districts and schools to more effectively and consistently utilize research, to improve
student achievement?
![Page 11: REGIONAL EDUCATION LABORATORY- SOUTHEAST REL-SE](https://reader035.vdocuments.net/reader035/viewer/2022081503/56814c08550346895db90929/html5/thumbnails/11.jpg)

CEEBE CEEBE • Increase capacity and provide support for
educators to use Evidence Based Decision Making (EBDM)
• Disseminate EBDM products and services
• CEEBE-GA has 5 participating districts (Bibb, Clayton, Columbia, Floyd, Stephens) and representation from GaDOE
• Would you like more information?

Types of EvidenceTypes of Evidence
• Research Study to advance knowledge, seek
credible explanations of phenomena
• Evaluation Study to determine merit or worth
• Data E.g.: Formative, summative assessments Demographic Process

DISCUSSIONDISCUSSION
• To what extent have we asked these kinds of questions about interventions we have undertaken in the past?
• What interventions could we use the Critical Reading Protocol with in the future?
• What would we need to do to make this happen?

Monitor: • Basic intervention components• Classroom observations• Formative assessments• Collegial problem-solving
Assess: • Is it going the way we planned? How can we
improve?

Evaluate outcomesEvaluate outcomes
What are the measurable outcomes (formative and summative assessments, and other data)?
How do they compare to our expectations?
Is it worth continuing with this intervention?
How can we improve our outcomes as we move forward?

DISCUSSIONDISCUSSION
1.How are we already using EBDM in our school or system?
2.How could we strengthen our use of EBDM?
3.What EBDM support do we need to do this?
