Dial back and make room for impact With teacher and leader
workloads and burnout at an all-time high, it’s time
for de-implementation: de-prioritizing and deleting the less
effective, higher-cost initiatives we implement in schools.
De-implementation allows us to focus on practices that have more
supporting evidence and a higher probability of positive impact on
students, and at the same time gain much-needed work-life balance.
In Making Room for Impact, the internationally respected
education experts and authors provide a clear four-stage process
for winnowing down teaching and learning to high-effect practices.
Informed by the latest research in learning, education, healthcare,
and psychology, each step and tool is designed to move educators
through the hard parts of letting go. Inside, you’ll find:
Research that tells us the process of schooling is often
over-engineered and that gives us permission to dial back,
carefully A step-by-step process for deciding which initiatives are
most effective—and how to let go of the ones that are not Useful
tools, templates, and charts that educators can immediately use in
their de-implementation work—at school, in teaching teams, or at
the system level It’s time to get our lives back—without
harming student learning. If we can collectively learn to let go
and understand how to identify which initiatives are worthwhile,
we’ll have more time for what truly matters.
