Continuous Learning Plan Implementation
“they [the students] were very successful in being able to focus and we continue to track participation rates all throughout. So literally every single day, there was a member of [Executive Director of Research, Assessment and Evaluation] Dr Changas’s team sending me a package telling me which schools were at which percent. The schools had it itemized by kids so that they could even dig down and look and say this kid took his reading but not his math, call the parent.”

Continuity in Crisis
When emergencies or disruptions hit, districts need more than good intentions – they need clear, workable plans for keeping instruction going and supporting students and families. By closely examining Continuity of Learning Plans from ten Tennessee districts, this project helps the state understand what worked, where plans fell short, and how to better prepare schools for the next disruption.
Fast Analysis for Fast Implementation
When disruptions are quick, solutions need to work quicker. At Basis, our job is to make solutions work by
- reviewing and coding districts' plans, artifacts, narrative responses, data, and stakeholder survey results.
- conducting focus groups with key players in each participating district.
- producing district-level briefs that highlight strengths, challenges, and facilitators for the Tennessee State Board of Education.
- developing a summative report on implementation challenges and facilitators.
