Prepare teachers with one full training day plus a mid-year follow-up day¶

Strategy · All strategies
Evidence · no claims cited

Description¶

Teachers are implementation ready after 1 full day of training; in the study they received a second full follow-up day around mid-year, "mostly used for sharing ideas and to overcome challenges." This light-touch professional development model supports rapid, low-cost implementation of the program.

Design Implications¶

Context¶

Requirements¶

• One full day of initial training for implementation readiness

Constraints¶

Target Learners¶

• K-8 classroom teachers implementing JUMP Math

Target Learning Goals¶

• implementation readiness and mid-year problem-solving for teachers

Related Strategies¶

• Provide teachers a full day of training before starting ELM and a second full day before the second half of the program
• Implement Classtime with a kick-off training day plus ongoing grade-specific follow-up sessions
• Support Math 180 teachers with initial start-up training plus 2-3 coaching visits during the year
• Train paraprofessional tutors with one initial day of training plus two two-hour booster sessions
