Big 5 ODR data generation and

analysis

PBIS Summer Institute 2012

Nicole MartinRogers, Wilder Research

Amanda Petersen, Wilder Research

Purpose of today’s session

wilderresearch.org

Define the importance of ODR data to PBIS

Demonstrate a new tool that Wilder will be

introducing for schools that do not use SWIS

Clarify expectations from MDE regarding

tracking ODR data

Seek input from participating schools:

* Process of gathering ODR data

* To improve the usefulness of the tool

What is “ODR”? What is the “Big 5”?

wilderresearch.org

ODR = Office Discipline Referral

Big 5 = who, what, when, where, and how often

SWIS = School-Wide Information System, a tool

for gathering ODR data * This presentation is for schools that do NOT use SWIS

Why is ODR data important?

wilderresearch.org

Key outcome of PBIS is behavior in school

* At the school, district, region, and state level

ODRs are widely used indicators of problem

behavior and social climate in a school

Schools that implement PBIS with fidelity are

expected to see a drop in ODRs, because PBIS

uses evidence-based practices

(it really works!)

How can ODR data be used?

wilderresearch.org

Normative ODR pattern compared to results for

individual schools to assess effectiveness of Tier

1 and Tier 2 interventions

~ 5% get 6+ ODRs

~15% get 2-5 ODRs

~80% get 0-1 ODRs

How can ODR data be used?

wilderresearch.org

Individual data to be used for identification of

students for Tier 2 and Tier 3 interventions

Summary data to be used for decision-making

and action planning: * Identify patterns, trends, changes over time, etc.

* Areas of success AND areas in need of improvement

ODR tracking spreadsheets

wilderresearch.org

Tool developed by Missouri PBIS

Two different spreadsheets

─ Aggregate (Big 5 Generator)

Tracks ODR Big 5 offenses School-wide

─ Individualized (Individual Data Collection Tool)

Tracks ODR data on an individualized basis

Big 5 Generator

Measures the “who, what, when, where

and how often”

Overall, big-picture view of ODR Data

Helps to plan school-wide interventions

wilderresearch.org

Features of the Big 5 Generator

wilderresearch.org

Per Day/Per Month Data Entry

─ How often problem behaviors are occurring

Behavior Data Entry

─What are the most frequent problem behaviors

Location Data Entry

─Where the problem behaviors are occurring

Time Data Entry

─When students are behaving inappropriately

Other features of the Big 5 Generator

wilderresearch.org

Triangle Graph

─ Charts the percentage of students with 2-5 ODRs and

6 or more ODRs (cumulative for the year)

─ Can help catch students who qualify for Tier II and

Tier III interventions early.

Other Features of the Big 5 Generator

wilderresearch.org

Monthly/Cumulative Graphs

─ Allows you to choose graphs you would like to print

and add to presentations

Per Day Generator

─ Calculates the median, 25th percentile, and 75th

percentile for a school with your enrollment and

compares it to SWIS national data.

Case study:

Wonderful middle school

Individual Data Collection Tool

wilderresearch.org

Collects individual student ODR data

Provides aggregated (school-wide) and

disaggregated (individual) graphs

Designed to summarize ODR data in a variety of

ways in addition to Big 5

Features of the Individual Data Collection Tool

wilderresearch.org

Big 5 Charts (who, what, where, when, how often)

─ Helps with Tier I interventions

Major ODR per student

─ Charts students by their student number

Majors: Digging Deeper

─ Allows to chart student behavior based on a variety

of factors

─ Can help catch students who qualify for Tier II and

Tier III interventions early

Other features of the Individual Data

Collection Tool

wilderresearch.org

Minors (Big 5)

─ Help with early identification of students who might

“fly under the radar” because they do not have any

major incidents

Triangle Generator

Case study:

Wonderful middle school
