Framework for Continuous Improvement

External Program Evaluation Reports
(all reports are in Adobe® Acrobat)
 

An Instructional Management Cycle for Continuous Improvement has been developed and implemented in UMSD to better coordinate a number of processes in the curriculum. The Cycle provides a framework for curriculum, instruction, professional development, and assessment. The framework defines phases necessary for the development of a standards-based curriculum within each cycle area.

It is defined by five phases:

  • Planning
  • Development
  • Implementation
  • Assessment
  • Monitoring
  The goal of this process is to sustain quality of instruction and promote student performance with the best standards-based resources and practices available.
