School and District Actions

-

Are you a school leader or district leader wanting to know who is responsible for taking action for students?  Are you wanting to see which students are receiving support?

WeCollab has compiled all the actions for the school in one area, and for the district in another, so that leaders are able to be informed of what is taking place for their students and their staff.


School Actions

As a school leader, it is impossible to be in attendance at every meeting that is had about students.  The School Actions bar enables leaders to see the actions that have been assigned to staff to support students.  This allows for the school leader to monitor which students are receiving support and to take stock of which staff are assigned to support students (thus looking at the idea of "Are we always supporting the same students?" or "Is the same staff member always assigned tasks?").


To view this compiled list, click on the Actions button on the left hand side.



The next step is to click on the School Actions bar to expand the list.  It is here that you are able to see who is responsible, what the action is, which student(s) the action applies to, the expected completion date, and the status (Incomplete, In Progress, Complete).





District Actions

As a district leader, it is impossible to be in attendance at every meeting that is had about students and schools.  


The School Actions bar enables leaders to see the actions that have been assigned to staff to support students across all schools.  This allows for the district leader to monitor which students are receiving support and to take stock of which staff are assigned to support students (thus looking at the idea of "Are we always supporting the same students?" or "Is the same staff member always assigned tasks?").


The District Actions bar enables leaders to see the actions that have been assigned to district staff at district meetings about schools and/or students, providing the same opportunity for monitoring supports and staff assigned at a district level.


To view these compiled lists, click on the Actions button on the left hand side.



Then click on the appropriate bar to expand the actions in the area for which you would like insight.





Similar in nature to one another, each area provides details about who is responsible, what the action is, which student (if applicable) the action is to support, which school the student is in or which school the action is to support, the expected completion date, and the status of the action (Incomplete, In Progress, Complete).

Leveraging the Actions Lists

The Actions lists beneath the bars can be searched by the name of the person responsible, the name of the student or the school for whom the action is assigned, the completion date, and the status of the action.  Utilizing these search features can allow for the list to be honed in on, with the extraneous information filtered out.


It is our hope that the School Actions and District Actions feature within WeCollab provide a source of information for leaders at the click of a button that can inform conversations to support students and staff.

Visualizing Jagged Student Profiles

Do your students require more support in some areas than others? Are you looking for digital solution that can reflect the complexity of programming needs of individual learners as well as groups of students? WeCollab can help with the display of student information that demonstrates diverse needs in different focus areas. The Notion of the Jagged Profile In his Tedx Talk, Todd Rose speaks about the myth of average.  He would suggest that it is inappropriate to tier a student as no learner fits succinctly into a single category, nor do they remain in that category each and every day.   Tedx Talk - Todd Rose - The Myth of Average Every learner has a jagged profile: we have areas of strength and areas of challenge that dictate who we are as human beings. When we acknowledge this, we are compelled to move away from the idea of tiering and labelling learners because one tier or one label does not neatly fit any one individual's profile! from Collaborative Response Symposium 2022 O...

A Tangible Student Support List

Do you find yourself having difficulty brainstorming possible supports to meet student needs during a Collaborative Team Meeting discussion? Are you unsure of the supports that might be available to your students? Might you be hoping for an organized list to identify possible supports in different focus areas? A tangible copy of the School Student Support List in WeCollab may be of assistance. Continuum of Supports The establishment of a Continuum of Supports is essential for all schools, to organize, articulate and tier the strategies, accommodations and interventions available to support the diverse needs of students. A comprehensive Continuum of Supports, developed and refined over time, helps to inform the collective question "so now what should we do?" and ensures the tiering of  supports , not students. In his blog post Examining Collaborative Team Meetings - Shifting to Key Issues , Kurtis Hewson elaborates on the process of consulting with a Continuum of Supports dur...
