By offering guidelines for safely challenging assumptions, building common language, and giving and receiving feedback on educational practices, protocols play a vital role in helping educators have professional learning conversations that lead to improved student learning. In When Students Fail to Learn, author Catherine Glaude provides a variety of protocols designed to facilitate a schoolwide response to intervention and prompt the adaptive changes needed as a school develops its response when students fail to learn. Glaude emphasizes the need to shift the school culture from isolated teacher actions to team and whole-school responses. Twenty-seven sample protocols are provided with an overarching goal of shifting thinking from my students to our students in this new culture aligned with the principles of professional learning communities, everyone in the school is invested in each student s learning. The protocols offered in this book promote structured communication and aim to build trust among educators to share knowledge and skills for analyzing and interpreting student assessment data. The protocols in Sections 1, 2, and 3 can be used for building and maintaining the foundation for whole-school learning. Protocols in Section 4 are for teams to use as they collaborate around common assessment results. Section 5 offers a model with protocols for creating and sustaining a schoolwide focus on student results. Section 6 provides a list of questions to assist readers in adapting or creating their own advanced protocols to fit the needs of their schools.
