Laurie VanderPloeg leads OSEP in the work to improve the outcomes of children with disabilities and families through the funding of the IDEA Part B formula grants as well as the IDEA discretionary programs by issuing idea determinations and most recently by addressing questions and meeting the needs of our stakeholders around the Covid-19 pandemic.
This IDIO 2020 keynote provides Part C and Part B 619 staff with foundational concepts related to date and equity.
Part C and Part B 619 staff can learn from the reflections of their peers on analyzing child outcomes data with an equity mindset.
This presentation can help Part C staff and other stakeholders gain strategies for identifying representativeness in response rates and how to ensure all families’ voices are represented in family survey data.
In the midst of the COVID-19 pandemic, many states continue to provide Part C and 619 services online or via a hybrid model of remote and in-person. For programs that have moved to in-person, access is often limited to only children and staff. As a result, challenges have emerged in determining the best ways to provide practice-based coaching to support practitioners with the implementation of evidence-based practices.
Data visualization is a powerful tool to report many types of data, including qualitative data. Due to the COVID-19 pandemic, state and local Part C and 619 programs have had to think creatively and strategically about how to provide services to children and families in a virtual environment due to in-person restrictions and school closures.
Join a panel of state leaders who will share their roles in the development and pilot of the Part C and Part B/619 Leadership Initiative sponsored by the Early Childhood Personnel Center (ECPC). Strengthening the knowledge and skills of the Part C and Part B 619 coordinators leads to enhanced effectiveness and retention of these critical state system leaders.
The improvement of social and emotional outcomes for young children depends on practitioners using evidence-based practices in the support of families and the instruction of young children. Join this session to discuss what it takes to improve and sustain practice implementation with a focus on social-emotional practices.
What is data leadership? How do data leaders create and sustain a culture of data use? How do we know what to focus on and if we’re doing it right? Join this interactive session to explore these questions and learn about strategies and resources for developing a culture where data are used for continuous improvement as part of day-to-day operations.
