Social, Academic, Moral Education with Distributed Leadership

Think of the plant model. Each leaf has two sides with a vein running between the two.

Social = Student Social/Teacher Social

Academic = Student Academic/Teacher Academic

Moral = Student Moral/Teacher Moral

Distributed Leadership is not divided into two categories.

As we examine our S.A.M.E. survey results we need to follow a protocol.

1. Go to website:  http://crtstechconsulting.com/ullc/.

2. Use your Results Username and Results Password.

3. SelectSchool System

4. SelectSchool

5. Select Question Type (Start with All)

6. Select User Type (Start with All)

7. Select View Text Results

Results will be listed by category and number.

 Example: Item DL001 means Distributed Leadership item 001.

8. Skim for weaknesses by average.

9. Skim for weaknesses by response number.

Remember:

1 = I am confident this is not true.

2 = I am pretty certain this is not true.

3 = I am not sure.

4 = I am pretty certain this is so.

5 = I am confident this is so.

10. Look at where the responses fall. The #5’s and #3’s are very important. You would want your staff to be certain that the action is occurring. If they don’t know, why don’t they know.

11. Look at the data for each user type. This will tell you if admins and teachers are seeing things the same way. We surveyed our paras, they are in classes. Their responses will either affirm or contradict the teacher ratings.

12. Pull a small leadership team together. Go through the above steps with them.

Remember, we asked, they spoke. The results should be used to drive positive conversations. The team talk will help you to address the whole staff.

13. Develop a protocol for improvement.

14. The protocol needs to include the items for strengths and weaknesses.

        We developed one that includes what we already do, what we can do table.

15. Develop a gallery of ideas for your needs.
