Using Evidence. Based Practices
AutoNDA by SimpleDocs
Using Evidence. Based Practices SAMHSA’s services grants are intended to fund services or practices that have a demonstrated evidence base and that are appropriate for the population(s) of focus. An evidence-based practice (EBP) refers to approaches to prevention or treatment that are validated by some form of documented research evidence. The Zero Suicide model has been developed as an overarching framework for the systematic application of evidence-based suicide prevention practices in health care. However, SAMHSA recognizes that EBPs have not been developed for all populations and/or service settings. See Appendix A of this document for additional information about using EBPs. In Section C of your project narrative, you will need to: Identify the evidence-based practice(s) you propose to implement for individuals in partnering agencies. If an EBP does not exist/apply for your program/population(s) of focus, describe the service/practice you plan to implement as an appropriate alternative. Selected EBPs should directly impact all seven required elements of the Zero Suicide model. If you are proposing to use more than one evidence-based practice, describe which elements of the Zero Suicide model each EBP will include and their potential outcomes. Discuss the population(s) for which the practice(s) has (have) been shown to be effective and show that it (they) is (are) appropriate for your population(s) of focus. Indicate whether/how the EBP will be adapted for each partnering agency and the individuals served. XXXXXX encourages you to consult with an expert or the program developer to complete any modifications to the chosen EBPs. This is especially important when adapting EBPs for specific underserved populations for whom there are fewer EBPs. In selecting an EBP, be mindful of how your choice of an EBP or practice may impact disparities in service access, use, and outcomes for your population(s) of focus. While this is important in providing services to all populations, it is especially critical for those working with underserved and minority populations.

Related to Using Evidence

  • Title Evidence Seller agrees to share equally with Buyer the closing agent costs and the cost of a title insurance company’s commitment and standard ALTA form owner’s policy (except survey matters) to the Property, showing a marketable title vested in Seller, subject to easements, restrictions, covenants, and other matters of record. Any endorsements shall be paid solely by Buyer. The title evidence shall be presented to prospective Buyer on day of auction. Buyer acknowledges: (a) receipt of the title commitment prior to entering into this agreement; (b) review of the title commitment to the Buyer’s full satisfaction; and (c) waiver of any right to object to any exceptions listed therein. If Seller fails to satisfy all such title requirements imposed on Seller pursuant to title commitment, Buyer may, as its sole remedy and at Buyer’s election, either: (a) cancel this agreement and receive a return of Buyer’s xxxxxxx money and, in that event, this Agreement will be canceled and the parties will have no further obligations to each other; or (b) accept such title as Seller can deliver. Buyer waives any right to seek specific performance or to seek damages from Seller.

  • Categories of Evidence Multiple measures of student learning, growth, and achievement, judgments based on observations and artifacts of professional practice, including unannounced observations of practice of any duration; and additional evidence relevant to one or more Standards of Effective Teaching Practice (603 CMR 35.03).

  • Evidence Used In Evaluation The following categories of evidence shall be used in evaluating each Educator: A. Multiple measures of student learning, growth, and achievement, which shall include: i. Measures of student progress on classroom assessments that are aligned with the Massachusetts Curriculum Frameworks or other relevant frameworks and are comparable within grades or subjects in a school; ii. Common assessments of student learning, growth, and achievement related to the Massachusetts Curriculum Frameworks or the Massachusetts Vocational Technical Education Frameworks or other relevant frameworks that are comparable across grades and/or subjects district-wide. These measures may include: portfolios, approved commercial assessments and district-developed pre and post unit and course assessments, and capstone projects. iii. Measures of student progress and/or achievement toward student learning goals set between the Educator and Evaluator for the school year or some other period of time as established in the Educator Plan. iv. For Educators whose primary role is not as a classroom teacher, the appropriate measures of the Educator's contribution to student learning, growth, and achievement set by the District. The measures set by the District should be based on the Educator's role and responsibility. See rubrics in Appendix A. B. Judgments based on observations and artifacts of practice including: i. Unannounced observations which are typically at least 10 minutes. ii. Announced observation(s) for non-PTS Educators in their first year of practice in a school, PTS Educators, Educators on Improvement Plans, and as determined by the evaluator. iii. Examination of Educator work products. iv. Examination of student work samples. C. Evidence relevant to one or more Performance Standards, including but not limited to: i. Evidence compiled and presented by the Educator, including: • Evidence of fulfillment of Standard IV: Professional Culture, including, but not limited to, professional responsibilities and growth such as self-assessments, peer collaboration, professional development linked to goals in the Educator plans, contributions to the school community and professional culture; and/or other items as described under Standard IV: Professional Culture. • Evidence of fulfillment of Standard III: Family and Community Engagement, including, but not limited to active outreach to and engagement with families, for example, phone logs, newsletters, conferences, district approved applications and platforms such as websites and email correspondence and /or other items as described in Standard III: Family and Community Engagement. ii. Evidence of progress towards professional practice goal(s); iii. Evidence of progress toward student learning outcomes goal(s). iv. Student Feedback (subject to negotiations) v. Any other relevant evidence from any source that the Evaluator shares with the Educator. Other relevant evidence could include information provided by other evaluators/administrators such as the superintendent. Relevant information from other sources will be assessed by the Evaluator and information will be shared with the Educator. vi. An Educators submission of evidence to support meeting the indicators of performance for Standard I: Curriculum, Planning and Assessment and Standard II: Teaching All Students, is optional as this evidence is typically gathered by the Evaluator during a classroom observation. Submission of evidence supporting either Standards I or II can provide additional data for inclusion in the Formative or Summative Reports. If an Educator chooses to submit evidence for these categories, it is suggested that the evidence be included by the time the Summative Report will be written.
